What is it: If you are looking for a quality STEM related experience for your youth this is the place for you! So come join us for this exciting new event Cub Scout STEM Days starting in January in partnership with Engineering for Kids! We will be running six Cub Scout STEM Days for grades 1st through 5th both Cub Scouts and non-registered youth. Each one of the Cub Scout STEM Days will be divided into a morning and an afternoon session. You will have the opportunity to attend either session to potentially earn the entire Cub Scout STEM NOVA Award for Science (Science Everywhere), Technology (Tech Talk), or Engineering (Swing!) depending on the day the youth attends.
What do clocks, see-saws and knees have in common? They are all LEVERS! Come explore the world of levers and simple machines! Use the Math, Science and Engineering Design Process to solve real world engineering problems. Weigh in and learn how scales work. You will get the chance to see who can make the better catapult in our catapult competition! Will you be able to launch something all the way to the moon? Come find out! Pay attention and you could be the one who designs the next engineering marvel! Could you design an elevator that could make it into outer space? Could you be the one to invent a quicker way to dig tunnels starting with the engineering you will be doing with us? We look forward to seeing you at our STEM Engineering event!
