STEAM Fest Volunteers 2026

STEAM Fest is back and BIGGER THAN EVER!!! Which means we need YOU, YES YOU more than ever to make this day the BEST IT's BEEN!!! Mark your Calendar for April 30th, block that morning cancel that meeting, don't schedule a workout class, and instead come join us. 

This event is closed to the public and the only way to be up close and part of the action is to volunteer! There are many ways to help out from day of check in, room assistance with middle school presenters, maker minute fun and clean up crew. We need all the help we can get to pull off this AMAZING day!  It truly won't happen without you.

Thank you so much and we hope to see you there, APRIL 30TH.
