Expo ideas for next year

Monday, February 25th, 2013

Our 2013 Engineering Expo was a HUGE success – over 500 kids attended, everyone loved the space at NCAT, we had some great new booths and can’t wait for next year.

In fact next year’s date is already planned! Save February 22nd 2014 on facebook so you don’t forget.

If you attended Expo, we’d love to hear what you thought and anything we can do to improve. Please fill out this survey.

If you volunteered or hosted a booth, there’s a survey for you too.

SWE members who planned Expo – please add your thoughts to the brainstorming files this week! We will be getting together at NCAT to review, debrief, brainstorm ideas and fill in next year’s chair.
Where: NCAT commons
When: Wednesday March 6th, 5:30 pm
Who’s invited: Planning committee

We’ll talk a little about the space while we’re at NCAT, then go grab some food by 6:15.
