Get ready to flex your mental muscles again in our fourth annual BRITE Challenge! Join us for this creative thinking event celebrating young STEAM leaders as we are “Bringing Rural Imagination to Technology and Entrepreneurship!”
This event will showcase the best and brightest ideas generated by local students as part of our ongoing MakerSpace project where students will interact with judges about their projects and prizes will be awarded.
A keynote speaker will inspire the students and a panel of expert judges will provide feedback on projects, ultimately selecting grand prize-winning teams for each category, but no one will go home empty-handed. Fun swag and prizes will be distributed, featuring the event’s mascot the BRITEbot. Students, educators, and administrators are all invited to attend. The event is free (but registration is required), and lunch will be provided.
This year we’re again incredibly grateful to be sponsored by the Tucker Community Foundation. Thanks to them for their generous support!
