They were accompanied by 2 beautiful Google dots, Katarina and Scarlette (CyberMill students).  You may have caught a glimpse of 2 handsome “Like us on Facebook” characters who were covered in blue face paint and hair spray.  That was Joseph and Nolan, CyberMill Interns and two of the team leaders at our Summer Tech Camps!

We had a wonderful time and Thank our students and families for joining the parade with us.  Thank you to the Vivan family and Ainsley & Blake too! Finally, a special thank you to our military men and women who serve our country and our honored veterans!  We love our country!

CyberMill recently hosted Comcast News Makers at our center as they filmed local non-profits who are making a difference in the Bay Area.  Comcast recognized CyberMill as one of these organizations!   As we continue to bridge the gap between students and technology we also continue in our efforts to make technology affordable for every child who desires to learn.  This short video will tell you about our upcoming fundraiser and how you can be a part of making our Tech Camps available to Napa county students this summer!
