Hello Tuesday Newsday Subscribers

    Sending out this quick one-page note on some updates since this week's Newsletter was issued ....

    Guest Speaker Night

    Remember that the Nov 12th Zoom Event was canceled due to an unexpected power outage.

    The Guest Speaker Night, orchestrated by the STEM Girls "Stronger" Initiative Team,  has now been re-scheduled for Tuesday, November 19th at 8pm.

    Dr Emilienne Repak has quickly and graciously agreed to provide the talk on her exciting career in Neuroscience. 

    Opted-In members of the STEM Girls organization can register using the link below.

    Monty RoboCon 2024

    This information arrived a bit too late to be included in last Tuesday's Newsletter but it good to share it now, particularly with its Nov 17th event date.

    Team #27334 "Monty Robotics" is hosting this Outreach event at the Montgomery Township Public Library.

    The team plans to use this event to promote STEM and FIRST in the community. Please see the attached flyer for details. 

    Rookie Rescue

    The Tuesday Newsletter incorrectly stated that the "Rookie Rescue" remote session would be taking place at its usual Sunday time.

    Due to heavy participation in this coming weekend's competition, the Rookie Rescue session will not occur until the following Sunday (Nov 24th).

    Tech Talk - Intake Systems

    In case you missed it, the Zoom session on Intake Systems has been scheduled for November 26th at 8pm

    The session, presented by the STEM Girls "Empowered" Initiative Team is open to all, members and non-members, students and adults, all genders.
