Grade School

Mechanical Advantage

Mechanical Advantage is a nonprofit corporation and FIRST Tech Challenge robotics team. Mechanical Advantage has been supporting this event since 2019 by providing hands-on robotics experiences for attendees of all ages. Attendees can have fun learning about robotics while operating table-top robots and driving a small, crowd friendly robot with soft tires that was designed just for large events like this. We have historically operated out of a 10’x10’ space.

Gastec International Corporation

Live demonstration of the Gastec Gas Detector Tube System consisting of a handheld non-electric Gas Sampling Pump and Detector Tubes (for up to 350 different substances) containing non-hazardous reagents in which there will be a chemical reaction resulting in a color change and thereby able to determine what's in the air. There is also a children's version available for educational purposes.

Salk Institute

The Salk Institute will be on hand to share the latest research in our Harnessing Plants Initiative, an endeavor to sequester atmospheric carbon & reduce global temperatures. Attendees to our booth will learn about the power of plants, examine the structures of plant roots, & conduct a seed planting they can take home with them.
