Hi everyone,

Just wanted to share the preliminary details for the 2nd annual New England Women-in-STEM edit-a-thon that will be held in conjunction with Ada Lovelace Day. This year's event will take place on Tuesday, October 15th from 3pm to 8:30pm in Providence, RI and is being co-organized by myself and several people at Brown University. Providence may be a bit of a hike for many of you, but I'm hoping to reach out to the Rhode Island/SE Mass./SE Conn. community as a way to recruit and train a new cohort of Wikimedians! If you cannot make it in person, we would still love to have you participate remotely...

For more information, and to RSVP, check out our event page:

We should have a room figured out by next week, at which time I will also be creating event pages on Meetup and Facebook. Please feel free to forward this to anyone in the New England area who may not be on this list!

many thanks,

Maia
