Thursday, January 13, 2022 at 6:00:00 PM The NEW HammerSpace Community Workshop

If you have cub scouts, then it is officially pinewood derby season! HammerSpace offers private pinewood derby car build nights for local scout groups. For just $20/child (with parent), your scouts can come in as a group to get assistance building their derby cars while learning some basic woodworking skills from a knowledgeable instructor, using the hand tools and power tools in the HammerSpace workshop. This is a great learning experience for scouts and parents alike! CAR WEIGHTS INCLUDED!

Schedule your build night at HammerSpace by calling (913) 686-6562, or email your request to hammerspacehobby@gmail.com

If you need to have an individual scout/parent come in to work on a pinewood derby car, give us a call and we will try to fit you in with one of our already scheduled build nights.

IMPORTANT NOTE: We are taking a hiatus from our in-person Hack Nights as we deal with the implications of COVID-19. We encourage teams to continue project work and to meet virtually from 6:00-8:00pm on Mondays. Our ability to provide pizza and snacks will be compromised, however :).

Individual teams will have access to video breakouts via Zoom. You can use Slack for breakout rooms if you like.

We are also exploring possible projects we could take on to help address this public health emergency. Please email codeforkc@kcdigitaldrive.org if you have any questions or are interested in working on immediate public health-related projects.

Thanks,
Aaron, Paul, and the rest of the Core Team
