A few days before your workshop, you're going to want to prepare! Here's
some suggestions:
-
Familiarize yourself with what you're covering in the workshop!
We have resources for you and
your club members.
Make sure you know the
requirements for a Swirl
website.
-
You may want to make slides (or use
ours!)
and make a demo website. It can be helpful when explaining things to
participants.
-
Have all the necessary materials ready! This can include: laptops,
internet, GitHub access, chargers, and handouts
(like this website planner).
-
Fill out
this form
to create your workshop once you're ready.
This step is required to ship and get your ice cream!
A few tips for running your workshop:
-
Go at a pace that works for you and your club members!
You can always split the workshop into multiple sessions if needed.
-
Ask your club members if they have any questions and be there to help
them.
-
Have fun and learn! The workshop is meant to be a fun learning experience
for you and your club members, so make sure to enjoy it.
Remember: you're in control of how the workshop goes, so make it your
own!
Have members submit their projects!
If you've done Boba Drops, this is very similar! Make sure they're able to
submit with a GitHub repository and their website. Have them submit at
forms.hackclub.com/swirl.
Once all of your members have submitted, let us know in
#swirl
to close your workshop and get your grant.
Use your grant to get ice cream or other food & beverages for your club.
Enjoy!
After closing your workshop, there are three ways to receive your grant.
-
Transfer to your club's
HCB Organization
We'll transfer the funds to your club's HCB organization for you to spend
on buying your club ice cream.
-
Get a Grant Card 💳
A virtual card will be sent to your email that you will use to buy ice
cream.
-
Reimbursement
You'll receive a reimbursement after submitting receipts.
