This year’s event is planned for Saturday, April 25, at College of the Canyons. The School & Business Alliance coordinates the event, and displays and hands-on activities are organized by local businesses. The activities are geared toward helping young people aged 5 to 20 to explore possible future careers by participating in hands-on activities.

Some 2,500 visitors attended last year’s inaugural event.
