Program Description
Event Details
Tinker Tuesdays is a hands-on educational program that allows children to explore, create, design, and problem solve focusing on STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Math) concepts.
This week, Robothink will lead a special workshop where kids will create a go-kart! First, build your kart. Then, build your course. And then? RACE!
The first modern styled go kart was built in 1956 from scrap metal and a lawnmower engine by Art Ingels, who is accepted as the father of go kart racing. The sport has grown every year since! Many of the most well-known drivers on the professional circuits started their careers driving a go kart. Drivers like Michael Schumacher and Lewis Hamilton drove go karts to hone their skills when they were younger.
This weeks program is geared for those 7 and up, younger students are welcome but will need an adult to accompany them and assist. Space is limited for this week's Tinker Tuesday. Registration is recommended.
