Apparently there's a Google one, too!!! But I don't know when or where yet! If I find out more, I'll let yoy know ;)
DC and Arlington? I mean I kinda get it but anyone in Arlington can easily go to DC and anyone in DC can easily go to Arlington.
If anyone is living in Virginia area (like me) it would be more likely that it would happen in Reston than in Arlington if they're holding a workshop in DC.
Either way...I wonder if I can go. Graduating this year so no?
I obviously don't know about the eligibility. I posted what I know, but I would recommend checking their website. They have free online classes for girls including building websites and stuff. And I think they'd have an email or something you can email and ask.

Dang, I don't fit the criteria, either. Maybe they have a camp for adults? :-D
