MAGIC is please to report that 15 students competed in the first Project e-Reboot Competition on Saturday, September 15, 2018. Together, e-End and MAGIC created an event unlike any other in the region! Set in a post apocalyptic world, Project e-Reboot challenged teams of high school students to create a functioning computer from recycled components at e-End’s facility in Frederick, MD.
The first place team, Detemmienation, included Alana Koh, Ben Bonen, and Elizabeth Metzler. They are pictured below with Arleen and Steve Chafitz, owner and CEO of e-End.
