Last week we hosted the Eastern Region Director's meeting with The Spectrum Group. 30 STARBASE directors joined us for the annual meeting. Special guests included The Adjutant General of Georgia and FTW Robotics. Directors collaborated for two days on many important STARBASE topics.
Our very own Froggy was recognized for 38 years as an educator. Congratulations Froggy!

Peachstate STARBASE Outreach had the pleasure of working with several Police Cadets from the City of Acworth and Marietta Police Departments.
The cadets were introduced to drones, and had the opportunity to fly them through obstacle course. The cadets created their own obstacles courses and competed against each other.

What a week! We hosted another camp for the Georgia National Guard State Youth Program this summer. It was a week full of trips around the base and flying drones, rockets, and many more.

We kicked off our summer camp sessions with a visit from the Paulding County 4-H Camp. It was the perfect day for learning about flying with the flight simulator, straw rockets and drones.

Community Outreach at Peach State STARBASE has been very busy this week!
On Friday we joined the STEM Club at Belmont Hills ES to help out at their last meeting. All the students had a great time flying drones through obstacle courses.
On Saturday over 200 students and family members flew drones at Tapp Middle School's community STEAM Day. Their drone club members had another opportunity to show their skills yesterday as they created challenging drone courses.
This past Monday, we were able to help celebrate the 5th grade students at Milford ES. Peach State STARBASE drones were an in-school field trip for the 5th grade class.

STEM at its best. MCAA (Week 2) proved air exerts pressure with a bell jar and a marshmallow. The results were mind blowing!

Kicking off our Aerial Robotics Teachers Institute with a visit from the Adjutant General of Georgia. Looking forward to a great 3 days of learning and flying.
We were fortunate to spend some time with the educators at our own Peach State STARBASE this morning. STARBASE is our earliest point of engagement with the citizens of our state, and specializes in teaching STEM to 5th-8th graders. The group present today is comprised of educators from a number of states, and is participating in the STARBASE Aerial Robotics Teachers Institute. The Peach State STARBASE is leading the way for others across the nation!

Possible severe storms for us coming up Friday. At least it will be warmer than previously thought
But wait! There's more: Right now, looks like a really good possibility of an ice storm Monday-Tuesday for us. Third week in JAN strikes again!
I wish this was a joke. But another similar setup we just had starts tomorrow. Already showing some big storms possible Friday from the SPC. This Friday! www.spaghettimodels.com
