This event consists of a family day focused around six participating local college institutions for both parents and students to experience a college campus, participate in some of the hands on breakout sessions that will occur during the normal event days, and obtain info and resources on financial assistance programs when applying to college. During the two main event days, separated between boys and girls on either day, community stem leaders within their field from various corporations, government agencies, and colleges/universities will present and provide hands-on experiences amongst the 53 hands-on breakout session. Both the san antonio hispanic chamber of commerce and the hispanic leadership development foundation have invested valuable resources to continue a successful stem initiative.
