Don’t miss out! After a very successful Pedaling Paths to Independence Bike Ride event on February 28th, get ready for the Lincoln High School STEAMFest on Saturday, March 21st. We will be reviewing the ride and lessons learned, and our program will focus on STEAMFest. We’ve come up with a cool project for this year’s STEAMFest and you’ll be trying it out.

Members in attendance in person can participate in a 50/50 raffle to win half of the donated “kitty” with the club. There will be refreshments too – maybe even a few brownies from the bike ride! (maybe not – unless we make some more and freeze them)

Grab your spouse, or significant other and come join the meeting. STEAMFest is our 2nd “Big Event” and we get lots of student and parent engagement every year.

The 7th Annual World of STEAM Expo, hosted at Lincoln High School in Stockton, California, is on Saturday, March 21, from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.

First, the organizers extend a heartfelt thank you to the Stockton-Delyta Amateur Radio Club for our consistent support as an exhibitor. The club has been part of every World of STEAM since it began. Your time, creativity, and dedication have played a vital role in inspiring our students and helping this event grow into a meaningful and highly anticipated experience for our school and community. We are truly grateful for your continued partnership.

The World of STEAM Expo is a free, public event designed to inspire curiosity and creativity in students from kindergarten through 12th grade. Each year, we welcome hundreds of students, families, and community members to engage with hands-on experiences that showcase Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math (STEAM) in exciting and meaningful ways.

We are inviting back our partner clubs for the Transmitter hunt, Hi-Altitude Balloons, Digital Voice and our own members supporting Morse Code, Analog VHF/UHF and HF radio. We’ve been asked to provide a table with an interactive, hands-on activity or demonstration that allows students to actively explore and engage. We have many! We are also looking at a simple LEKtenna LED project students can build in less than a minute and explore radio waves from a new perspective.

Put March 21 on your calendar and plan on being there!

Together we make this experience possible for students and community.

Your participation helps make the World of STEAM Expo a memorable and impactful experience by exposing students to real-world applications, careers, and creative possibilities within STEAM fields.
