| 13 | +## Coding Challenge Evening |
| 14 | + |
| 15 | +Back by popular demand! |
| 16 | + |
| 17 | +We're back after the summer break with an evening of graded coding challenges. |
| 18 | + |
| 19 | +Coding in pairs or small groups (especially mixing beginner and more experienced coders) is strongly encouraged, though you can also code solo. |
| 20 | + |
| 21 | +If you don’t already have Python set up, we can help you with that too. |
| 22 | + |
| 23 | +This event is orgnanised by a charity - Code The City. CTC suggests a small donation to help with charity admin costs, but if this is a barrier please just change the ticket price to what you can afford. |
| 24 | + |
| 25 | +We're now back to running physical events backed up with an online option. |
| 26 | + |
| 27 | +If you select a physical ticket and it happens that we can not meet physically you will have to attend the Zoom session. If you choose a physical ticket and it goes ahead you will have to comply with any conditions of attendance (eg masks or social distancing) that the venue operators demand at the time. |
| 28 | + |
| 29 | +Those attending the physical space meetup should attend at 6pm for pizza and drinks. The coding session (for online attendees) will be from 6.30pm. Doors will be locked from 6.30pm. |
| 30 | + |
| 31 | +**If tickets are sold out please do not attend as you will be refused entry without a ticket. ** |
| 32 | + |
| 33 | +Our booking system is provided by Tito. Their platform is integrated with payment processing by Stripe |
