<br>During Oakland Wiki's hackerspaces-themed editathon last Sunday, I worked on the Ace Monster page, and through that discovered "Hacker Scouts", an amazing mentorship program for young people interested in hacking stuff. Today while lurking Ace Monster's discuss listserv, I ran into a great convo on it. If you are interested in developing a youth engagement program at Sudo Room, these people would definitely be great allies and provide good solid insight. There already seems to be a collaboration going between them and Mothership Hackermoms. </div>

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1<br><br>Dear Friends,<br>We have an amazing teen at Hacker Scouts who is trying to fund his<br>ambitious and amazing project for this year's Maker Faire. Cameron is a 17<br>
year old, homeschooled guy that paints, plays with lightning, makes<br>electronic mechanical contraptions, writes computer programs, and<br>builds/fixes computers.His project, the TARDIS tesla is very cool and<br>ingenious in it's design and entertainment capabilities.<br>
<br>We are proud to be helping Cam reach his Maker Faire goal. As a member of<br>our Hacker Scouts Guild 001 in Oakland, we have the privilege of seeing him<br>work on a variety of projects with precision, ingenuity and passion. He<br>
also mentors the younger members of the Guild with compassion and a cool<br>ability to share knowledge. Between the Hacker Scouts mentors and his<br>mentors at Arc Attack, he has the support to achieve his dream. We believe<br>
in him and his TARDIS Tesla, and ask you to contribute to his<br>campaign<<a href="http://www.gofundme.com/TARDIS-Tesla" target="_blank" style="color:rgb(17,85,204)">http://www.gofundme.com/TARDIS-Tesla</a>>.<br><br>

<br>Yeah Cam has brought his Tesla coil into the space a few times to show it<br>off, impressive stuff. I think he and Costa worked together on the laser<br>cutter to build the control panel for it.<br><br>--------<br><br>
