Join Me for the 1st NEPA Hackathon!

Posted

I’m happy to announce that I (with @nepawp) am working with @tecbridge1, and The University of Scranton ACM group to put on the first (of hopefully many) NEPA Hackathon! It will be held on May 11th, 2014 from 10am – 3pm at the Scranton Enterprise Center, at 201 Lackawanna Ave. Scranton, PA 18503.

We’re very excited to to be hosting the event and invite coders, designers, and students from all over to join us. Here’s the official announcement:

All are invited to participate in our 1st NEPA Hackathon.  If you are a programmer, developer, graphic designer, project manager, entrepreneur or just interested in learning, join us for this One Day Session.  Participants are able to take part in 1 of 4 Tracks;  Ruby on Rails, WordPress, Entrepreneur Project or Open Category (submit your idea, maybe we’ll select yours).  Enjoy meeting other like minded people or come to learn something new! All are welcome, but you must bring a laptop.

We’re hoping for a great turn out for a day of coding and collaboration. And don’t worry; we’ll supply coffee and pizza. You can also follow @nepahackathon for updates leading up to the event. Registration is open now. What are you waiting for?
