Cleveland Maker Faire 2019 and Cleveland Public Theatre "D�a de Muertos"

I am a very lucky man! In October and November 2019, I was very fortunate to attend many great events. I am publishing seven blog posts today because I really want to thank the organizers of these events. With so much happening, I have not been able to publish my blog posts on a timely basis, but still wanted to recognize and recommend these organizations.

I have already published the following three blog posts about October events: 

Here is a list of the seven new blog posts which will include tweets that tell the story of ten great events and the organizations sponsoring them. In the interest of time, these are not my usual full blog posts, so I encourage you to click on the links and watch the videos in the tweets to learn more:

    MIX: Anatomy - Cleveland Museum of Art on October 4, 2019.

Kevin Wins Costume Contest at 25-hour Gaming Marathon for Charity

While my son, Mike, was demonstrating PerMUTATIONS at the Cleveland Maker Faire, my other son, Kevin, was demonstrating PerMUTATIONS at the 25-hour gaming marathon. The marathon raised money for Rainbow Babies And Children's Hospital. While I was leaving the Cleveland Maker Faire, I learned that Kevin had won the costume contest that took place during the marathon!
