The quickest way to describe Nerdy Derby is a “Pinewood Derby on Steroids!” Pinewood Derby is an event where the Cub Scouts build and race cars made of wood, plastic, and metal down a wooden ramp.

Maker Faire® Milwaukee – it’s official!
The first-ever White House Maker Faire will be held on Wednesday, June 18, and that day has been designated as a nationwide “Day of Making.” It seemed like a good time to make our plans for Milwaukee’s first Maker Faire official, too! Maker Faire Milwaukee will be held on September 27-28 at Wisconsin State Fair Park, on the same weekend as Harvest Fair. Admission is free. Maker Faire Milwaukee’s Call for Makers is now open. If you are a maker, commercial maker (selling awesome stuff you made), power wheels contestant, potential speaker/presenter, or are interested in leading a workshop, please click here to fill out the Call for Makers form. #MKEMakerFaire #NationOfMakers
