The LRIG-New England Sponsorship Program


2016
The LRIG-New England, in keeping with our desire to support and foster education in our community, continued our sponsorship of the Massachusetts STEM Summit (mass-stem-summit.org).  We had sponsored this program in the past and planned on using it as a means to directly reach out to teachers who might be interested in applying for our 2016 Teacher Grant program.  This annual meeting of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math education brings educators, business leaders, policymakers, parents, and students together to share strategies and ideas.

We are also sponsoring a First Robotics team this year.  We met the TJ2 First Robotics Team (tj2.org), which operates at Bridgewater-Raynham Regional High School, and decided to sponsor their team this year as well.  The TJ2 team has been working with students for the past 22 years and participates in a number of First Robotics competitions.
 
Plans for 2017
The LRIG-New England plans to continue to sponsor the programs and events that help drive the STEM education and interest forward.  We plan to sponsor Touch Tomorrow this summer.  This is a family-friendly festival of hands-on technology and exhibits that is occurring June 10, 2017 on the campus of Worcester Polytechnic Institute.  Additional details will be posted when they become available.
 
Stay tuned for more information and news on how the LRIG-New England is reaching out to our community to help drive interest in science and technology.  If you are aware of events in your area please feel free to forward information regarding the program or event to dan.cinicola@lrig.org.
