Clubhouse in 2009

February 9th, 2009

We hope everyone has had a happy and safe holiday season and are excited about all the opportunities 2009 has to offer.

Clubhouse has been open for a week now, and we’re already off to a flying start. Some of the projects being worked on at the moment include-

  • Lego robotics using NXT  and the older Lego Mindstorms
  • Interactive Programming with Picocrickets
  • Building a website for youth performance group
  • Planning a music video to accompany some tracks produced last year with the Adobe Youth Voices Program. (more news on this soon)
  • Photography for our upcoming “Through Our Eyes” photographic exhibition next Saturday

Some new members have started, and we welcome two new volunteer mentors, Claire and Grant to the Clubhouse.

Grant has many interests and we look forward to taking advantage of his musical skills in the music studio as some of the members are interested in recording some raps.

Claire enjoys trying her hand at everything and her first day at the clubhouse involved finding lego pieces for our Clubhouse Members engineering masterpieces.

Gail Breslow, Director of the Intel Computer Clubhouse Network at the Museum of Science in Boston, USA is visiting us next week and will be at our exhibition “Through Our Eyes” on Saturday 21st February from 11am.

All members of the community are invited to attend.
