November Mini Hackathon

Come and join us for a Mini Hackathon on Saturday 18th November in Blackpitts. The space will be open from 10:00 until very late. This event is free to attend for both members and visitors alike. You can come any time during the day, from 10:00 onwards. Have a quick look around or stay the whole day. Whatever works for you.

What is a Mini Hackathon? Well it’s like all of our regular open evenings rolled into one and then some more. It’s an excuse to drop in and make/break/create/tinker/hack anything. Brewing, Electronics, Baking, Crafting, Wikipedia editing, Coding…. all these and more. Whatever you can think of! Theres already talk of people doing strange things with air compressors and sand. Want to know more…. well you’ll have to come in and find out.

TOG members have a great sense of priority and because you can’t hack on an empty stomach, we’ll be starting with breakfast. The kettle will be on at 10:00 and we’ll provide all of the basics in our kitchen for breakfast. If you want something fancy for breakfast… bring it in!

Suitably fed and watered, the fun will begin. If you don’t fancy getting your hands dirty…. well drop in anyway. Have a cuppa and see whats going on. Get some ideas and have a look around the space.

Saturday 18th also happens to be our regular Open Social day, so the space will actually stay open sometime into the small hours of Sunday morning 19th. We have parking available. Hope to see you there.

*** Please Note: You must be 18 Years or older to take part in this event ***
