AB STEAM Flood Solutions Hackathon

Student Showcase + Open House on February 5 at Danny’s Place

Please join us for the AB STEAM Hackathon Acton Flood Solutions Showcase and Open House with light refreshments on Thursday, February 5, 2026 from 5:00–7:00 PM at Danny’s Place (543 Massachusetts Ave, Acton).  Student Hackathon presentations begin at 5:30 PM.

AB STEAM partnered with the Town of Acton Conservation and Sustainability Office with grant support from the Integral Charitable Foundation to engage Acton-Boxborough middle and high school students in developing innovative solutions to local flooding challenges. The project focuses on flooding affecting Acton conservation lands, roads, and culverts.

Over the past seven months, Hackathon teams have worked hard researching and designing unique solutions to address flooding in Acton.  We are grateful for the participants’ dedication and invite the community to join us in learning from, supporting, and celebrating the Hackathon teams as they share their local flood solutions.  And one day, hopefully, we can see these solutions become a reality throughout Acton!

This is also the end of the AB STEAM DiscoverSTEM Online Silent Auction which benefits ABRHS STEAM Clubs. Bidding is open now and ends at 7:00 PM on February 5.

Thank you, and we hope to see you there!
