Congress App Challenge

From Esri Schools Manager Charlie Fitzpatrick: 

Congress wants kids to create apps! http://esriurl.com/funwithgis156. Show this to your high school and middle school audiences, CTE friends, guidance counselors, computer science colleagues, and mobile app junkies. Esri has many tools for building map-based apps. This is a fabulous opportunity to share how geotools and geographic thinking help to solve problems.
