Let’s SHAKE it for the kids!!

SEAoAL is participating in the 13th Annual Engineering Showcase at McWane Science Center. The event is geared toward students of all ages and schools. Typically, the students are K-5th grade. McWane expects around 1,000 kids, teachers, and chaperones.

Other engineering firms, organizations, and university groups will be participating as well. Lunch is provided for volunteers and they offer parking tokens, and tickets to the IMAX film, Cities of the Future. This is a great opportunity to inspire future engineers and meet other professionals in the industry! Students will build LEGO structures, and test them to see how they behave under “seismic” loading.

The event is on Friday, February 23rd from 9:00am – 2:00pm at the McWane Science Center (200 19th St N, Birmingham, AL 35203).
