It was a fun filled day at Horace Mann Elementary School for the STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math) Fair. Rose Park Neighborhood Association and Bluff Heights Neighborhood Association, Inc. teamed up with LB Skate Co to co-sponsor the construction of Mini Skateboard Ramps, provided by Keen Ramps.

The fair was held on Thursday, April 28 and featured many community organizations, and parent run booths with fun learning opportunities for the students ranging from kindergarten to fifth grade. There was plenty of food and lots of activities for the whole family to enjoy.
