From the WCHS press release:

“Star Wars and STEAM are returning to Washington Community High School again on Saturday, January 20!  The WCHS Book and Game Clubs will host their 7th Annual STEAM into Star Wars community event, and we would like to invite you to be a part of this special event.  

STEAM into Star Wars is a celebration of everything Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Math with Reading and Writing included, all revolving around the theme of Star Wars.  The sixth annual event drew nearly 400 visitors in 2023 and over 500 in 2020, and we look to build on that success in 2024.  This year we are excited to expand the hours of the event from 9:30am to 2:00pm that Saturday.  We hope to reach more families that may have morning activities who may be able to attend in the afternoon.  

The community attends the event to play games, attend Star Wars story-time, witness and be a part of live podcast recordings, shop a Book Fair, visit with local artists and authors, see the WCHS Robotics team, attend panel presentations, win prizes, and more!  

 

As always, we do not have a fee for you to exhibit, but we invite you to make a donation to the event for us to use for prizes.  The donation is not a requirement, but if you are able and willing, it would be very much appreciated.  

Please let us know if you are available and interested in joining us by replying to this email or emailing WCHS Librarian Tom Gross at [email protected]”
