Workshop #146/osmp 2015: Session 06 (the final session!)

For this weekly hack night, we're doing a special Wednesday session and doubling up with our osmp 2015 mentor/mentee teams. This is the last one of the series! The event is still open to all our members, so please read below for more information. But before you do! The 2015 mentorship program has been possible by the generous support of our sponsors: Azavea (@azavea), Delphic Digital (@DelphicDigital), PromptWorks (@PromptWorks) and Chariot Solutions (@ChariotSolution)--check em out and be sure to give em a shout of thanks! Don't forget the #osmp2015 :]

Join us at our weekly workshop to learn about technology, sharpen your skills, and help Philly at the same time! There are ample opportunities for people with any skill set and experience level to have an impact. Check out our website for a list of active projects (http://codeforphilly.org (http://codeforphilly.org/)) or just stop by and ask for a captain to help you get started.

Our final session is sponsored by Microsoft! We'll hear more from them during the lightning talks round.
