Hi there!
Scratch day sounds awesome, and my dad has a training room in Wellington, New Zealand. I think he would agree to a Scratch Meeting in NZ but we'll have to see. Is it ok with you guys?
We have a room with about 20 computers and it will be easy to put Scratch on them. I don't know how many people will visit but we'll see.
I'll keep you updated,

Hey, another forum.
I just wish there was something close to where I am, though. I wouldn't be able to set one up.

I live in the UK. I may not be old enough to start one, but I know someone who would be who lives near me! I don't know many people in the UK who play Scratch, only my friend spy2712, but maybe if I put up posters more people would come! And it's not just for people who already play Scratch. YES!!!! This is a brilliant idea, having a special day that's made especially to encourage people to use Scratch! I'll ask my parents if I can help start one!

Nope, no new places yet. You can also track the events by visiting the Scratch Day events page. The most recent event is listed at the top...
Thanks for helping people know about Scratch Day!

I might drive to Madison Wisconsin or Rockford for a scratch day event but I have no idea if there are either any scrathers (is that the right term) in the area. My son would love to meet other people that scratch.

I'm in France, anyone else? Maybe those who live too far apart could connect online somehow...
