Booths of all kinds – from elementary school kids showing off their science project to VU student organization letting attendees build boats to hold pennies to R2-D2 roaming the Faire taking photos with everyone!

We hosted the second annual Robotic Football Playoffs with Notre Dame, Purdue Polytechnic Kokomo, and Ohio Norther. The Fighting Irish took home the Brian Hederman Memorial Trophy.

We want to expand and make this years even better! We can only do that with your help!
