In less than 2 weeks, the 2nd Annual Michigan Give Camp in Ann Arbor will be upon us.  It’s hard to believe that almost a year has passed since the first Give Camp in Ann Arbor!  When I talk to people about Give Camp, here is what I normally tell them:

“In the 15 years that I’ve been a software developer, the first Ann Arbor Give Camp was the most physically and emotionally exhausting weekend of my life, but absolutely the most satisfying thing I’ve ever done related to software development.”

If you’re a developer of any level, a designer, DBA or PM and want to help out some great charities, head over to the registration site and sign up.  If you’re involved with a non-profit organization in the state of Michigan and want to send us a proposal, there’s still time to submit.  Check out this post on the Michigan Give Camp website for more information.  You can also follow us on twitter.  If you have any questions at all about participating in the Give Camp (either as a developer or a nonprofit), email info@MichiganGivecamp.org.  If you’re interested in sponsoring the Michigan Give Camp, contact sponsors@MichiganGiveCamp.org.

If you’re in Ohio, a Give Camp is planned for the same weekend in Columbus.  Head over to their site and sign up.  If you’re interested in sponsoring the Columbus Give Camp, check out their Sponsors page.  If you’re in Knoxville, TN, several developers have already committed to holding a satellite Give Camp.  Contact Nate Blevins if you’re interested.
