A Day in Beacon Park

Code313 hosted a Family Fun Day at Beacon Park over Father’s Day weekend. Attracting over 200 attendees, the event offered families an exciting opportunity to engage in STEM activities and bond with one another. 


From constructing marshmallow catapults to creating DIY lava lamps, families were immersed in hands-on exploration, competitive games and the amazing food trucks. The interactive stations provided a space for parents and children to collaborate, communicate, and create lasting memories. They were able to create DIY lava lamps and have competitions with their event made marshmallow catapult's and balloon cars.


Code313's Family Fun Day at Beacon Park exemplified the power of STEM to bring families together and inspire the next generation of innovators and problem solvers.
