Founded by Dean Kamen 25 years ago, with a Super bowl of Engineering, in that time over 75,000 students and 19,000 mentors along with 24 Countries that built robots. Which they will have this year’s competition at Penn High School. We learned of the 2 schools in South Bend and that Career Academy and when you hear the students speak, you learn on how exciting and educational it has been for them. Just a few things that they teach at the Academy is Marketing, Engineering and building.

Have a great week Roseland Rotarians.
