LyonHacks is a hackathon at William Lyon Mackenzie C.I., geared towards creativity, learning, and having as much fun as possible with the various mini-games, challenges, and social events that will take place during the hackathon! Join us for 36 hours of hacking between April 13-15th, and make sure you've registered through https://mcpt.ca/lyonhacks

Requirements

In order to be eligible for submission, you MUST be a William Lyon Mackenzie student who has signed up via https://mcpt.ca/lyonhacks

Please submit your project to this website before 10:00 AM, April 15th, 2021 along with an offline presentation of your choice to boost your pitch! Although a video demonstration is strongly encouraged, other types of presentations, such as a Powerpoint or a Web Page are allowed.

A big part of LyonHacks is about creativity, ideas, and learning, so even if you didn't get to create a fully working project in time, that's okay! 

Make sure that you have submitted to BOTH Devpost AND the Google Form that will be sent through the MCPT Discord server, shortly after our opening ceremony.

Note that there will be no live pitching during this event.
