​The **BuildHers+ Mentorship Initiative Graduation** marks the culmination of the first-ever mentorship program of AWS User Group BuildHers+ Philippines — a milestone celebration honoring the growth, achievements, and resilience of our mentors and mentees. ​This event brings together the entire BuildHers+ community to recognize the meaningful connections formed, the skills developed, and the breakthroughs made throughout the mentorship journey. Over the past months, mentors generously shared their expertise while mentees embraced opportunities for learning, confidence-building, and career advancement. ​The graduation program will feature the awarding of certificates, reflections from mentors and mentees, special messages from community leaders, and a final gathering to celebrate the success of completing this transformative journey. ​As we conclude the inaugural run of the BuildHers+ Mentorship Initiative, we honor not only the accomplishments of every participant but also the collective commitment to uplifting women and LGBTQIA+ individuals in the tech industry. ​Together, we celebrate how far we’ve come — and the brighter, more inclusive future we are building. 🎓👩🏻‍💻

**Caller: Dan Kappus** **Band: Trillium** **Big Scioty Contra Dance** **temporarily returning to our long ago location for Jan-March - First Congregational Church, 444 E. Broad St., Columbus 43215** WHAT IS CONTRA DANCING? Picture the Grand Ball scenes like you’ve seen in period films such as “Pride and Prejudice”, where the dancers are lined up in long lines, across from each other. That’s English Country Dancing, the predecessor of contra dancing. Now, add moves like “swing your partner” and “do-si-do,” like you’ve seen in square dancing. Set it to fabulous, high energy, live music with fiddles, guitars, percussion and more, alá “Riverdance.” Finally, set the whole scene down in the middle of Woodstock, with a hip, groovy atmosphere, a bit of tie-dye, and hints of counter-culture attitude. THAT’s Contra Dancing! Wear cool and comfortable clothes (you will get warm) and clean shoes that won't mark up our nice wood floor. Be sure to come for the beginner's lesson from 7:30 - 8:00, followed by dancing 8:00 - 10:30. All dances are taught; we will help you learn! Beginners always welcome, no need to bring a partner. Cost is $10.00 adults, $5.00 ages 12-26. Under 12 free. Free parking in church lot.
