Once you sign up for a project, please reach out to the contact listed in the project description to introduce yourself and confirm any last details, such as items you need to bring and the time you will meet with them on the day of the event.
Teams of 5-20: Sign up for any project except those designated "Free Agent" projects. Note that "0/1" in the "Filled" column means one team can sign up for a project. This is different from the team size needed for the project, which is included before the name of each project (i.e. Team of 5-7).
Individuals and teams of less than 5: Sign up for one of the "Free Agent" projects at the top of the sign up list. The "Free Agent" projects will combine individuals and small groups to complete a larger project together.
