STEAM NIGHT 

 

Volunteer to help with Del Lago's STEAM NIGHT!

 

March 19th from 6:00PM - 8:00PM in and around the MPR. 

 

We'll need volunteers to help run ten STEAM stations in celebration of science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics.

 

Plus, there will be a food truck, music, a raffle, and tons of fun!

 

(Please make sure you have a current Volunteer Form on file with the front office!) 

To signup you must either login or provide a first name, last name, and email address. Login


You should have access to this email account and be able to receive emails related to this volunteering opportunity.


It's funny, but robots don't seem to be able to do simple math.
