AIAA Houston STEM Volunteer Opportunity – Ecobot Challenge

The AIAA Houston Section is encouraging members to participate in the EcoBot Challenge. The EcoBot Challenge is for 5th-8th graders in 4-person student teams to design, build and program autonomous robots to accomplish 4 missions on a competition table. The event will be held at Reliant Center Hall E and needs setup volunteers May 16th and varying types of volunteers on May 17th. You can find out more on the website below or go directly to sign up here.  If you sign up, please be sure to put down “AIAA Houston” as the organization you are representing and also let us know you will be attending by selecting the “Free Ticket” below.

Thank you in advance for inspiring the next generation and giving them a great learning experience!
