Hello Codeforces!↵

The Harker Programming Club would love to invite middle school and high schoolers to our Harker Programming Invitational (HPI) 2022 event on [Sunday, March 13 from 8:00 AM to 2:45 PM PST](https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=HPI+2022&iso=20220313T08&p1=224&ah=8). This year the theme of our contest will be “CS & Space.”↵

The Harker Programming Invitational is a one-day event consisting of a programming contest, keynote speech, panel discussion, and awards, with the goal to inspire and empower students to participate in computer science, technology, and AI. The competition will provide aspiring students with the opportunity to solve creative programming problems, while the keynote speech and panel discussion aim to give the participants insight into the fields within Computer Science and Space.↵

Teams of up to 3 students will participate in the regular and tiebreaker rounds, which are 1.5 and 1 hour long, respectively. There will be two divisions, Novice and Advanced, with 10 problems in each. Problems will be similar to those on Codeforces. We have up to $100 in individual prizes for high-performing teams!↵
