Grizzly Hacks is an organization that engages in hosting community hackathons created for high school students who want to challenge themselves, build meaningful projects, and connect with others who love solving problems through technology. 

Throughout the weekend, you'll work with a team to bring an idea to life, with guidance available when you need it and a supportive community alongside you. There are prizes for standout projects, but more than anything, it’s about the process: trying new things, solving real problems, and walking away with something you built from the ground up.

All high school students are welcome!

You Must Be in the Discord Server to be elligible for any prizes.
