ATTENDEE INFO:
To LA Python folks:  Please encourage the smart women in your lives to 
come with you.  It's a great opportunity to introduce them to Python.

To PyLadies who have attended previous events:  This event is great for 
PyLadies of all skill levels.  Come and listen to talks, meet with other 
folks learning about Python and complete projects in the hackathon.

To new attendees and beginners:  Don’t be shy to sign up.  This is your 
opportunity to try Python web programming for the first time. Just be 
prepared to work hard and ask questions at every opportunity.

To non-developers:  Please don’t come just to recruit developers or 
bother attendees who are trying to focus on writing code.  We will have 
zero tolerance for this and reserve the right to ask you to leave.  
However, if you leave the “recruiter hat” at home and work hard with an 
open mind, you’ll be warmly welcomed and we’ll help you learn :)
