A number of folks on this list were extremely helpful last year for both
the lead-up and the execution of the Python Education Summit.

I recently posted to the PyCon blog the following note about the need for
assistance again this year. If you are inclined to assist in any way (big
or small), please let me and Jessica Nickels (cc'ed) know.

Below is the text of the PyCon blog announcement:


The Third Annual Python Education Summit
<https://us.pycon.org/2015/events/edusummit/>, held during PyCon
<https://us.pycon.org/2015/> on Thursday *April 9th 2015*, is coming
together. We are gathering some excellent talk ideas (click here
<http://www.google.com/moderator/#16/e=211b44> to see some of the proposed
talks). Thanks to those who have summited talks so far. As with any event,
the Education Summit can't be pulled off alone, so we are asking for
volunteers. Some of the roles that you can help with include:

   - *Keynote Speaker Team*: help us identify and invite Keynote speakers(s)
   - *Call for Proposal Manager*: help us support the call for proposal
   process (answer questions, process submissions, etc)
   - *Emcee*: help emcee for our second track in the afternoon
   - *Publicity Rep(s)*: support us in advertising via the
   twitters/facebooks/etc
   - *Ushers/go-fers*: help ensure that the actual event runs smoothly

If you would like to help, please contact Chalmer Lowe
<chalmer.lowe@gmail.com> or Jessica Nickel <jessicanickel@gmail.com>.
*NOTE*: Even if your schedule doesn't allow you to support through
volunteering, please feel free to sign up
<http://www.eventbrite.com/e/the-pycon-2015-education-summit-tickets-15029161627>
for
the Education Summit to meet with your peers in education to learn more
about combining Python and Education.
