Video game design development

Our 15 yr old son has outgrown most of the local summer coding camps (Digital Academy, IDtech,etc) and we're searching for an ongoing group or program in the East Bay where he can continue developing his passion on an ongoing basis. We're exploring online options like Udacity but would like a social component as that's an area of challenge for him. Thanks in advance for your help!

Take a look a the maker spaces but even better are the Meet-ups in SF. http://www.meetup.com/  Or try http://www.meetup.com/codeselfstudy/

Hi,

My children are younger but we've had really good experiences with a local guy in Lafayette. Here's a link to his meetup page where he coordinates his offerings.

Boy, I'm thinking CIT programs - ask about an informal opportunity even if they don't advertise them - at all of those places, plus Children's Creativity Museum in SF, TechKnowHow, etc...
