Hackathon Event


  • Even if you're not an expert at coding, this hackathon will offer an opportunity to strengthen your skills and collaborate with others to create something useful. Below are important dates to keep in mind:
    • Aug 11 -> Signup Period Ends
    • Aug 12-14 -> Summer 2022 Hackathon
  • Our program is dedicated to providing the Gilroy/Morgan Hill/Hollister youth with the opportunity to develop their coding skills. We specialize in hackathons where students participate in teams and compete for prizes. Students can create their own teams or if they are competing individually, we will assign teams based on experience level and programming language. For this hackathon, we plan on grouping at least one experienced person with novices so that no one is out of their depth. The current estimate is that there will be one or two experienced people and two novices in each team for this contest. However, depending on the number of participants, we may decrease team size if not enough people participate.
