Youth Startup Weekend is a nice event to get your feet wet. The kids that show up are fun and pretty darn smart, some great ideas come out of these. http://startupweekend.org/interests/Youth http://startupweekend.org/interests/Youth It's a whole weekend of volunteer work, functions just like an adult startup weekend. Kids learn to pitch, come up with ideas, and pivot more times than an adult does (ha!). I've done a few in different states. Only one wasn't run well (techstars appoints faciliators & organizers, it's up to them on how well the event runs). The others I learned just as much interacting with the kids than they learned from me. Give it a shot! They don't have many events on that page now, but they have events in quite a few states throughout the year.
