CYHS iTeam

CYHacks ‘20 took place on January 25, 2020, in the CYHS Hub.  CYHS iTeam members planned this 12-hour hackathon as a programming competition and learning event. Participants spent the day attending various seminars and trying online coding activities.  Many of them also chose to compete in the programming contest. The task required the creation of an application, website, game, or video based on the theme ‘Time’. Competitors chose selected different aspects of time, such as history, learning to tell time, scheduling time, and time to crack a password.

The learners ranged in age from elementary through high school and included Central students, Girls Who Code members from Harrisburg and Hershey and other students from Dallastown and New Jersey.  CYHS iTeam members arranged donations worth over $600 for food and prizes, and they offered seminars on biomechanical and nanotechnology, 3D printing, and computer building. Brain breaks included a Super Smash tournament and board games.  

Thanks to all of our CYHS iTeam volunteers and donors for hosting another great coding event! To see projects from our participants, visit https://cy-hacks.devpost.com and check out the video for a summary of the day.
