  • Should put together a followup in the next week or two that is targeted around "Bring STEAM workshop to your School" and is geared towards illustrating our willingness to come to them, and shows off the recent success we've had with other schools around the country. PLUS highlights upcoming camp dates they can get on-board with.  Same end goal, different messaging.
