NILES, Ohio – The Mahoning Valley Scrappers will host Advanced Manufacturing & Engineering Night on June 5 when they take on the State College Spikes at 7:05 p.m.

The event, presented by the Mahoning Valley Manufacturers Coalition, will provide K-12 students and their parents with a look into the world of STEM education and opportunities for careers at leading organizations located in the Valley.

Students will have an opportunity to experience interactive, hands-on exhibits with virtual and augmented reality, robotics, 3D animation and printers and more.

“Last year, thousands of students and their families engaged with local manufacturers, education partners, robotics clubs and more before an awesome night of Scrappers baseball,” said Allison Engstrom, MVMC project manager. “We expect the event to grow even more this year, and we can’t wait to provide educational, fun, hands-on activities and demonstrations for students to learn more about STEM careers in manufacturing, engineering and more.”

All students will receive two free game tickets to attend the event by filling out the ticket request form that can be found on the Scrappers website.
