Several students were able to participate this year in our after school Technology and Engineering club, sponsored by BYU. This spring, students were able to use our 3-D printer to design and create many items. The final item was a plastic rocket and students celebrated by launching them this past week. Here is a link to a video if you'd like to see them in action. We appreciate the time and effort of BYU professors and students in making this happen.
