Two Days of Fun In The Sun!

solar4STEM hosted a booth at the  St. Petersburg Science Festival on Friday, October 19th and Saturday, October 20, 2018,  It was a humbling experience to educate, and speak with over 10,000 teachers, parents, and students. We were enthused to have the opportunity to educate our community about solar energy, and electricity, and in return we were greeted by the enthusiasm of the Tampa Bay science community.

Exhibit 4. Local Tampa Bay students work together to assemble an electrical circuit.

Time and talent are two wonderful gifts that every community can benefit from. Through the hard work of our solar4STEM crew from last weekend, visitors that stopped by the St. Petersburg Science Festival were able to participate in free educational experiences.
