You'll be free to work on whatever you want. We'll try to keep you from getting stuck, and we'll give you a place to start (if you want one). This is a unique opportunity to learn about state-of-the-art software, hardware design, and engineering from mentors working for Bay Area startups as well as big companies like Google, NVIDIA, Intel, Facebook and Microsoft.   What can I do at Hack the Future? You might learn how to: Make your own video games Learn to solder electronics Create a webpage Make mods for existing games like Minecraft Create things using a 3D printer Design and present a new product And a ton more Along with all the fun, lunch will be provided!   What hackers need to do: Bring a laptop.  Visit our website and install the recommended programs. Bring laptop's administrator password to install programs. Ask questions!  Try new things, and have fun!   What parents need to do: Ensure that your child has the Administrator Password for their laptop. Check hackers in at the event at 10:00am, along with these items: a copy of your ticket(s), the signed waiver form, and the medical information sheet. Tickets are required due to limited capacity. Come back at 3:45PM to see the Lightning Talks (voluntary presentations on what hackers have been working on). Come back by 5PM to check your child back out so they can go home. Additional Notes to Parents 1. Help us create an environment of independent exploration Parents are highly encouraged to drop participants off and let them explore independently, although you're welcome to check in on them if needed. Come back and check out your hackers promptly at 5PM; we'll need to clean up, and our volunteer mentors have to stay with your child until he or she is picked up.  2. Sign out when you leave with your hacker Parents it is very important to remember to sign your child out of the event! Any names which we do not have parent signatures for check-out are given a follow up by HTF volunteers to verify that your child has been picked up, so please do our volunteers a favor and save them an unnecessary call. 3. Only get a ticket for the hacker Parents, please don't reserve a ticket for yourself.   We Need Your Help to Keep HTF Running If you'd like to support Hack the Future, please consider making a one-time donation or becoming a monthly supporter.
