Project Description Country: USA Location: Loveland, Colorado Total Budget: $9,606 Area of Focus: None Activity Type: Education: General Summary: Purchase equipment and find advisors for a fabrication shop at Walt Clark Middle School The Thompson School District in Loveland has recently constructed a Career Center along with a new alternative high school that provides training for jobs right out of high school. Walt Clark middle school has many students that continue on into the alternative high school and is partnering with them to prepare their students to hit the ground running when they enter the manufacturing and design pathway. With this project, Walt Clark will be able to purchase equipment that will allow students to create prototypes and finished products and learn how to use graphic design applications to produce laser engraved and 3D printed designs. The Rotary club of Loveland fund the initial equipment needed to get this shop going and will also provide consulting to help set up the shop and then will help find mentors to help the students with their projects.
