Codemash is an annual conference held in Sandusky, Ohio in January.  CodeMash is organized by several volunteers from the professional developer community in the Heartland region who are recognized experts in these different technologies.  Ever since I've discovered this conference and volunteering opportunities, I've highly encouraged my students to attend, network and learn cool stuff.
