On Saturday, December 13th, 331 students from 27 schools across the Puget Sound participated in our biannual programming contest. Due to high demand in the previous contest we arranged to host the contest at two sites: UW Seattle and Microsoft Redmond. Together with the support of volunteers, sponsoring organizations including UW Dawg Bytes, and Microsoft Teals, and key PSCSTA members including Lauren Bricker, susan ev(ans), Chad Norman, Kory Srock, Brett Wortzman, and many others we had a very successful contest.
