Well hello Eleanor!
Dang, a bit of schedule conflict as us in the centennial state were already planning an event for the weekend before and I personally have a long-standing commitment that weekend preventing us from pushing back OSM-Colorado-MapCamp!-South Park. But I added it to the wiki anyhow, and was planning on posting something to the list this week; so if you’re in CO or want to come camping and mapping the weekend of July 24-26, head on over to our meetup page (thanks to our meetup sponsor Telenav): http://www.meetup.com/OSM-Colorado/events/223668240/ We’re still very much planning details, but I will probably need to make a rough estimate of tent and car counts to reserve campsites by early next week – will be calling/exploring/maybe reserving a few this weekend. Cheers, =Russ P.S. You can email me at either [email protected] or [email protected] if you have questions – or preferably, join the chat on the meetup event.

We've got our next OSM US quarterly mapathon coming up the weekend of August 1st - obviously you can host a mapathon in your area any time of the year, but it's also pretty awesome to know that people are mapping across the country at the same time. :) If you want an idea for a theme, we created an OpenStreetMap mapathon BINGO card (https://c1.staticflickr.com/1/439/18875377873_968818d547_z.jpg) that includes images of (and tagging conventions for) summery things to add to OSM. Ice cream shops! BBQ pits! Car washes! Swimming pools! Let's get 'em all into OpenStreetMap. You can read more on our blog post here: http://openstreetmap.us/2015/07/summer-mapathon-bingo/ If you're organizing a mapathon, please add it to the wiki page here so that everyone knows about it: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Mapathon/US_Summer_Mapathon_2015 We also have a new OSM US slack channel for current & future mapathon organizers to informally chat about ideas/outreach strategies/successes/etc. - send me your email ([email protected]) if you would like an invite. Thanks! Eleanor
