We're grateful to the City of Indio for helping us inspire the next generation of thinkers, builders, and problem-solvers," says Elle Decker, Co-founder of SteamRocket.

The City of Indio’s support has been instrumental in bringing these educational experiences to local kids, and we are continually looking for sponsors to help us expand our Learning Lab workshops.
