Wanted! Hackerspace in Hayward is NEEDED ASAP!
Hayward is considered the armpit of the Bay Area. It needs a major transformation. It is an extreme educationally underserved urban commmunity. It is in desperate need of a major overhaul. The answer is a HACKERSPACE! Hayhackers is a family friendly Hackerspace.
Who is it for? People of all ages. It is accessible to everyone. Even children will learn to solder, build circuits and work on their projects to fulfill their STEM/STEAM curriculum expectations. There will be areas for parents and children to hack at the same time. There will also be a toddler and infant section as well so that mothers can hack as well. It will also cater to homeschool families as well. Will there be a fee? Eventually when we are beyond the planning fee, there will be an annual membership fee to cover the cost of rent, utilities etc or the option to volunteer for 40 hours a month. Where? In an out of business empty car dealership along Mission Blvd. near South Hayward Bart Station Why do we need this? Having one will bring together all the geeks, nerds, artists, hands on machinists and inventors in our city as well as provide an educational and creative outlet for some of the troubled youths in our area and make Hayward a place where new inventions are born. With such a place, new businesses and companies would be attracted to our city as a place to live, work and be educated.
