Come try out competitive programming and get some practice in before the 2024 USA Computing Olympiad season, with prizes for the top teams! You'll be racing to solve the most programming challenges in 2 hours.

You can either sign up with a teammate, or we'll help you find a teammate when you arrive. Each participant will be allowed to use their own laptops. There will be prizes* for the top teams!

The competition is targeted at incoming 8th to 11th graders who have already taken any programming class in the past (in Python, Java, or C++).
