Thanks everyone for coming out tonight! We're well into our season, with projects moving to their last stages - but we also took the time for musical movies trivia night at team came out strong! 💪 🎤 our best categories:
1) Matching the song to its movie!!🎥
2) Recognizing John Travolta's singing voice from the 70s
3) and all of us unanimously realizing at the same time that the Trolls and Smurfs movies are basically the same thing (the only difference being one with visible hair, and one without!)

Starting our hack night with a legendary talk from Yumi and Kelsi-Leigh

🚨Season 5 kickoff!🚨

We kicked off s5 this week with a mini hackathon where volunteers got hands-on with the challenges pitched at last week’s demo day and roughed up some MVPs and targeted scope of work for this season. Everyone jumped right in that we forgot to grab some BTS shots. These will have to do 🤓

Interested in working on one of the projects? Join us next Wednesday for our second week of ideation - we’re open to any and all skillsets. No contribution is too little!
