Only 16

When The Nerdery announced a couple weeks ago it had invited 16 (rather than 12) teams of web development volunteers to the Overnight Website Challenge, some who’ve been in the 24-hour needy-meets-nerdy room for extended periods scratched their head while recalling their experience. “That’s a lot of people – and twice as many feet – in some mighty close quarters,” some said.

“The Nerdery went a bit nuts here, even for them,” said one industry observer.

So, while we draw up schematics for the new-and-improved seating chart, here are the 16 (rather than 12) nonprofits coming to the 2010 Nerdery Overnight Website Challenge (listed in no particular order, other than alphabetical)

• Bloomington Chorale
• Centro Campesino
• Child Protection International
• Common Ground
• Dakota Wicohan
• DesignWise Medical Incorporated
• Homeward Bound
• Kinship of Greater Minneapolis
• Minnesota Association for Children’s Mental Health
• Minnesota Jaycees
• Minnesota Senior Corps Association
• Multicultural School for Empowerment
• Redwood Area Communities Foundation
• Restorative Justice Community Action
• Rural Renewal Energy Alliance (RREAL)
