We also want to send some swag for your event which due to long distance we sincerely hope that they will arrive on time! We will also write a blogpost on codebender’s blog about the Arduino Day and the events/workshops around the world so we’d love to have some photos of your event especially the ones with codebender in :D . Last but not least, we would like to run a contest and offer an Arduino board to a lucky participant of your workshop."
