First and likely only island Hackathon for teenagers

Hackclub just launched shipwrecked which is a hackathon that will take place on an island in the Boston bay from august 8-11.

There are 130 spots at this hackathon and in order to get one you need to work on 4 projects over the summer and try to get at least one of them to go viral (top of hn being on of of the ways) as well as work on those projects for at least 60 hours.

Hackclub has done a bunch of other incredible hackathons in years past like [trail](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ufMUJ9D1fi8) (30 teens hike the pacific crest trail with hardware they made themselves), [boreal](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hiG3fYq3xUU) train hackathon across Canada (sadly cut short because of wild fires in Jasper so they didn't get to traverse the whole length just the first half), and the latest one [Juice](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SiDWvGPl0z0) where 100 teenagers worked on their games for 100 hours each and then opened a gaming cafe in Shanghai!

If you are a teenager (or middleschooler) or know one then have them signup (or signup yourself) at https://shipwrecked.hackclub.com and then join the slack community (best bit of hc ^-^) at https://hackclub.com/slack

hackclub hackathons are absolutely worth it, they were life-changing and transformative experiences, not just coding competitions. the goal isn't winning prizes but creating meaningful memories and building awesome projects that last forever

if you're a teenager (middle or highschooler), don't overthink, just apply!!

see you in #shipwrecked (join the slack)
