Several local businesses and organizations provided more than 30 different fun hands-on activities for kids to learn how STEM subjects are used every day by firefighters, police, nurses, pilots, farmers, teachers, those who work with animals and many more.

Representing ����ɫ��ҹ Salem were faculty and students from the nursing, rad tech, horticulture and early childhood education programs. 

And, despite the damp forecast, organizers were thrilled with the number of area students who attended the event, as well as with the variety of fun activities.

There were more than 150 students from 20 area schools districts, including preschools, private and public schools.

“It was so cool to see the kids fully engaged in the different activities and to witness their excitement at learning new things,” noted Dr. David Dees, dean of the ����ɫ��ҹ Columbiana County campuses. “The sponsors and presenters offered unique opportunities for the kids to have fun while learning. It was a great day!”
