4-H Engineering Design Challenge kickoff - Delano

Learn more about the 2024 Engineering Design Challenge (EDC) at the kickoff on Sunday, May 5, from 1:30 to 4:30 p.m. at the Delano United Methodist Church.  

EDC is a statewide 4-H event for youth in grades 3 and up to work in teams to design and build a Rube Goldberg™ type machine that solves a two-step task. 

The goal of the EDC is to use engineering to encourage young people's creativity, collaboration, communication and critical thinking. Youth will experiment with hands-on engineering activities, solve challenges and learn how to construct a machine while having fun. 

This event is a fun experience to use your creative building skills and learn more about the 2024 EDC Challenge: Engineering for a Changing Climate. 

Adults are also invited to attend to learn more about becoming involved in supporting their local team in reaching their EDC goals.
