Science Education Enrichment Day (SEED)

Science Education Enrichment Day (S.E.E.D.) is a family-themed festival celebrating science, technology, engineering, and math.

Imagine getting up close with honeybees, petting an alligator, learning how to make a rain garden, investigating a carnivorous plant, driving a championship robot, or virtually traveling through outer space. Guests will be able to do just that at SEED.

The event will celebrate innovations in the areas of STEM (science, technology, engineering, mathematics). Student groups, regional corporations, museums, professional organizations, government agencies, educators, and national labs will join forces to create and present engaging hands-on activities for guests of all ages.

We plan this event each year to give young learners close and personal interaction with real-world scientists, engineers, and other technical professionals. The goal is to increase awareness of STEM's role in society and that it can also be fun. As a society, we must continue to excite and engage families in STEM fields.

NABRC will be participating with the Aiken County Emergency Management Communications trailer. We will teaching the kids to send their name in Morse code. They will be able to assemble bead bracelets with their color coded in Morse code. For the youngest kids there will be a QSL card coloring table.
