Another Great Success on our Volunteer Recognition Event!

Posted by STEAM South Shore on October 20, 2017

Thank you to all the presenters and volunteers who came to our get-together, and we also appreciate the company of Massachusetts Representative Tackey Chan who joined us, too.

A good time was had by all. Each of the presenters shared their experience from this past April and you could sense their eagerness to be part of the next South Shore Science Festival — our 4th — in 2018. Getting to know each other this way is not only a positive thing for the festival itself, it’s fun.

Thank you also to our Recognition Event Sponsors: Dassault Systems, Gateway to Science and Positive BCS

You will find attached here the presentation we reviewed that day:
