A 360 view of Baltimore's youth I'm giving a huge shout-out to all of the community engagement folks out there, whether that's your official role or you're just the kind of person in your office, family, or friend group responsible for coordinating activities to rally a sense of pride or camaraderie. Engaging with your community can take many forms, from attending local meetings and events to volunteering with local organizations. By getting involved, you can make your voice heard and contribute to positive change in your neighborhood. That’s integral in a city like Baltimore, where so much positive change happens every day. Moreover, community engagement can help you build relationships and networks with people who share your values and interests, and ultimately create a sense of belonging and purpose. To continue our theme of celebrating Women in Tech throughout this Women’s History Month, here's a riddle about a woman based in Baltimore who is absolutely engaged in her community. She has a special day planned for families this weekend, filled with food, dancing, dirt bikes [huge hint], music, a raffle, and more:
