Something for the family!….TALK & LCCC are partnered with TechGirlz for some free summer camps for middle schoolers. TALK board members will teach these classes found on your home computer or laptop this summer from the TechGirlz curricula. TALK stands for the non-profit tech council in our area, Technology Association of Louisville Kentucky. We are hoping to have 30 students each class — designed for middle school age girls. Let’s have some fun! Moms and Dads can buddy up with their daughter or an older sibling or let a neighborhood middle school friend come hang out for these hourly sessions. Totally free. Registration is on Eventbrite, so find the class your tween is interested in, and sign her/him up today! TALK has worked with TechGirlz curricula as well as LCCC as a partner for three years.
