Participants will prepare delicious dishes while keeping nutrition and safety in mind.
Robotics will engage participants in design and programming electronics devices. Robotics will meet Monday through Friday, June 17-21, from 9to 11 am at the Extension office. (
The program is offered through a grant from the Iowa Department of Human Services.
