Our team believes in creating STEM opportunities for students across our community. We have engaged with students of all ages through a variety of events. Our education focused events work to inform and educate students through hands on activities. Over the past 6 years we have done STEM Camps, Hour of Code events, STEMPOSIUM and Tinkerfest booths, hosted events at the public libraries, and hosted a number of Amazeum Spotlight events. In 2019 we launched the STEM Category at the Benton County Fair focused on showcasing STEM creations from youth all across Benton County. We continue to operate this section of the fair each year. Our teams have done a number of public demonstrations including on the Bentonville Square and the NWA Naturals Robots at the Ballpark event. We are also active with FIRST including mentoring FLL teams and volunteering at a number of events.

STEM FAIR

In 2019 we created and launched the STEM Category at the Benton County Fair. Over the last three years we have continued to grow this category and seen the entries grow. From science experiments, to robots, to massive lego creations the entries amaze us more each year!

Our team has volunteered at FLL, FTC, and FRC events. In addition to volunteering at events we actively mentor FLL teams in our community. We also actively promote FIRST through public demonstrations in our community. One of our favorite events was “Robots at the Ballpark” with the NWA Naturals.
