The 2015 Cleveland GiveCamp #CleGC was extremely successful - batting 1.000 in assisting 19 of the 19 non-profits chosen. Over 200 volunteers donated their tech skills to create websites, apps and more for 19 local non-profit organizations. The volunteers worked around the clock in one weekend at Burke Lakefront Airport and LeanDog's boat in Cleveland. First for all you GiveCampers who are looking at this. Yes, I know the Great Lakes Geek site needs an update from my old HTML that I did in Notepad. Maybe next week. Yeah, right. Mark Schumann served as MC and kept the presentations moving (in his own inimitable way).
