  • Halo ball is a lot like basketball only quite different. There is a hoop suspended in the air by ropes on each side of the hoop that are tied to trees, or at lifeshop, the beams in the middle of the room. It's a lot of fun, and easy for everyone to enjoy.

HANDS-ON LEARNING

  • Build a Traxxas RC Car, learn how to race it, jump it, flip it, and when it breaks, how to fix it.

  • We have multiple 3D printing machines and software to use to make many different 3D items. There are so many options of things you can make with 3D printers from toys to useful tools. It's a lot of fun.

  • We all have things lying around our house that we’ve broken and need to fix like bike tires, skateboards, toys, and appliances. But, often we don’t know how or have the tools to do so. So, grab that thing and bring it to class, so we can work on it with you.

  • Time management is something we all need help with. Life can get busy, and we all often wonder how we're going to do all that people are asking of us at school, at home, in sports, or other activities we might be involved in. In this class you will learn how to get it all done and still have time for the things you want to do.
