Scratch Day DC 2012 (May 19, 2012) was a huge success! Approximately 40 people attended, 14 teams created over 17 programs, and we were even 'surprised' by a special Scratch rhyme/poem.

What is Scratch, you say? Scratch is a (visual) programming language created by folks at MIT. It is great tool for learning computer programming, game design, animation, and more! On this day, we will hold free workshops for students, parents, and teachers!
