Hi All,
Wow, July was so much fun, especially at Inspirefest Family Fringe Festival hosted by Accenture Dock.

A big thanks to our volunteers, Irene Yeriskin, Nadja Deininger, Lei Shao and Benjamin Duffy. It was a pleasure to partner with CoderDojoGirls@DCU (Niambh Scullion) and big thanks to Girls Hack Ireland who supplied the laptops. And of course to Ann O'Dea and Aishling Hyland for inviting us and having us involved with the event.
