Field trip to ESPN in Bristol, Connecticut

Several ABC scholars attended STEAMfest in Bristol, CT. on Saturday, October 24th. STEAM — an acronym for science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics — is a “tremendously important focus” for both the Boys & Girls Club and ESPN, who co-hosted the day together, said Michael Suchopar, the club’s chief professional officer. The day was filled with over 40 exhibits for parents and children that ranged from robotic demonstrations and chemistry experiments to things like how to process various aspects of a crime scene. The exhibits were manned by volunteers from ESPN, educational institutions, businesses and other organizations. Click this link to an article in The Bristol Press:
