Finally!
We've been waiting for Summer for so long, it seems. Sure, the mild Spring and rain was nice, but we know everyone is ready for some nice long sunny days.
Now that its Summer, what are you going to do? This week, we hope you've marked your calendars and are joining us on the Patio at the Owyhee Plaza for our one year anniversary at Girls in Tech Boise. We are thrilled to see that so many of you have agreed to join us to mark the occasion. What are the rest of you waiting for?
If you have wanted to learn more about the local tech scene or meet any of the movers and shakers in said scene, here's your chance. Our friends at Kickstand, TechBoise, Jelly Boise, RadioBoise, Ignite Boise, Startup Weekend Idaho (are you seeing a theme?) will be there. In our excitement for Thursday, we might have left some groups out. If so, we apologize. Let us know and we'll give you a shout out too. There is much to celebrate in our fair Valley.
Girls in Tech Boise also is very excited to welcome Finn Riggins to the party. What better way to celebrate Summer and the local tech scene - all in one night? Finn Riggins has played all over the map since releasing A Soldier, A Saint, An Ocean Explorer (their debut album in November of 2007). These road warriors are have a fresh take on NW indie rock and are helping push and promote Idaho on the national independent music scene. Catch them Thursday night and then Sunday, June 26th at the Boise Rec Fest.
A huge thanks to Kelly A. Madison for helping out with the arrangements and for the generous sponsorship! Are you following her yet? She's @KellyAMadison on Twitter.
