SUMMARY:GoBabyGo! Build-A-Thon
DESCRIPTION:NextFab and local non-profit GoBabyGo! have partnered to build a better future for kids with disabilities. \nJoin us during Delaware Innovation Week to learn more about how you can make a difference by building cars for disabled children in your community.

GoBabyGo! developed a low cost solution for these kids through modifying electric ride-on cars with items found in a hardware store. Like each child the cars are unique\, adapted to fit their day-to-day needs and therapy goals. \nThis event will feature: \n\nA full GoBabyGo! car build\nA walk-through of a GoBabyGo! circuit and electronics basics\nA live CNC machine demo\nTours of NextFab\nLight refreshments provided by The Mill\n\n\nLet us know if you can make it!
