The Robbinsville Innovation Club of Mercer County 4-H will host a two-day virtual Maker Fair on Saturday and Sunday, Aug. 29 and 30. There will be several opportunities to see all of the innovative projects created by the 4-H club members over the past year. The youth have invented a variety of products that address several societal challenges related to health and wellness, environmental sustainability, food production and more. The public is invited to see them present their creative high-tech solutions. |
As a bonus, there will be 4-H members from innovation clubs in Ashland, Mass., and Ashburn, Va., also participating in the weekend Maker Fair. Over the past couple of years, the Mercer County Innovation 4-H Club has established these new 4-H clubs in Massachusetts and Virginia as well as a connection with students at Jawaharlal Nehru Technological University in Hyderabad, India. A group of experienced 4-H members has been providing regular virtual training in a variety of STEM topics to youth of these other groups – and they will be presenting their projects as well.
Those interested in attending should contact the Robbinsville club directly at RobbinsvilleInnovationClub@gmail.com.
