Camp HackBeanpot Spirit Award

After a weekend of completing challenges with your Cabins and making projects, we are so excited to see what you’ve learned at Camp HackBeanpot. We challenge you to build something that embodies our values of exploration and teamwork. This could involve a project to express your gratitude to nature or a survival tool for you and your fellow hackers.

Most Inclusive Hack

Last year was full of social change, and it doesn’t need to stop there! We challenge you to continue the trend into 2021 by creating a hack that uses tech to promote social good, accessibility, or impact on the world around you. Check out our livesite for some links to get started!

Hack for Joy

Everyone has their own unique hobbies and interests, such as gaming, rock climbing, knitting, or fishing. Whether it’s a hobby you picked up during quarantine or a life-long passion, at HackBeanpot, we challenge you to build whatever your heart desires! Encouraging passion and creativity, we present to you, Hack for Joy!
