Hack_@ASFM |
High school Hackathon in Monterrey, Mexico. |
Hack_@ASFM will be a 20-hour coding event where teams of two to six high school programmers will develop an application, game, or system in their favorite programming language. The final product must address a theme that will be revealed on the day of the event. The team that develops the best project will win a grand prize. As implied by the name of this event, it requires that students stay at ASFM* overnight to code and complete their project (with parental permission of course).
*Students will be staying at the ASFM Library — for more information please read below.
The event will take place from Friday, May 18 at 2:45 pm to Saturday, May 19 at 12:00 pm at the ASFM Library.
Registrations have now been opened. Please register your team at http://goo.gl/F27KLY.

Of course! We will be providing dinner, breakfast, and lunch as well as some additional snacks and drinks — don’t worry, that includes coffee!
There will be some sofas around the library, but we do not guarantee that everyone will have one to sleep in. That being said, we do recommend bringing a sleeping bag and pillow. Just remember that the ASFM Library no longer has a carpeted floor.
Yes, and any other electronic device you would like to use. There will be at least one power outlet per person, but you might also want to bring your own power strip just in case.
We are excited to say that for this event only, the ASFM staff has allowed us to eat inside the library! That being said, you MAY bring your own food and drinks, but please keep our ASFM Library clean and remember that you will have to pick up after yourself.
If you have any other questions, do not hesitate to contact our head of Public Relations, Natalia Menendez.
