Wrapping up a week with the Crater Region Workforce Board / Virginia Career Works Crater Region Drone Workshop. This was the first time Digital Pioneers built a drone from our custom kit. Don't let the boneyard of parts fool you, this was a great time with a lot of flying, confusing, flying again, and hard landings! At the end, we have newly minted certified pilots who had a great time. Thanks to our host Richard Bland College of William & Mary and all of our guest speakers: DroneUp, Dedrone, Ferguson Dale 🤟, and John Knag. Want to know more? Reach out to us!

This week, , is all about encouraging and empowering young tech enthusiasts—which we happen to do year-round. A parent of one of our recent students thanked us for doing just that: "Thank you for this wonderful opportunity that gave my son an intense amount of motivation... He has not stopped talking about it. His confidence is up the roof. He has continued to research computer parts and is looking for a simple item that can be renovated. This is not like my son, but you were able to get something connected within him."

Whether it's a long-lived passion or a new area of interest, STEAMBridge wants to help you (or your teen) harness the power of technology to shape a brighter future. Reserve a spot at one of our upcoming workshops: https://steambridgeonline.com/workshops/
