The Challenge is back. Are you ready?
From the mid-1990s to the early 2000s, the Woburn Challenge was an annual computer programming competition hosted and run by Woburn Collegiate Institute’s Programming Enrichment Group (WCIPEG). In 2015, we relaunched this free and fun competition for aspiring computer science students in Canada. This year, we're back again with fun challenges and thousands of dollars in prizes to top secondary students in Canada.
Prepare yourself for perplexing puzzles and a plethora of prizes.
Update on the contest
Dear challengers,
In 2015, we set out with the goal of giving a little back to the community that enriched our interests in computer science. We sought not only to rekindle an old tradition of our local club, but to share the experience with anyone interested in a good puzzle. Thanks to your continued participation and support over these four years, we were driven to keep challenging you to the next level. We are gracious that this journey has brought us closer to some of the most brilliant minds among the next generation of problem solvers.
Unfortunately, due to developing barriers in our full ability to commit to the cause, it is time for the Woburn Challenge to scale down. Namely, periodic online rounds throughout the year will be closed until further notice. In the meantime, we are contemplating a shift in format to an annual event, reminiscent of the original iteration of the contest from 1995--2003. You can continue to access past material via woburnchallenge.org/past-contests as well as the PEG Judge. We would like to thank you again for your interest and engagement over the years and ask you to please stay tuned for news about potential future rounds.
To four fun years of challenges and beyond!
Sincerely,
The Woburn Challenge Team
