Materials that will be used to create the steel bird house and the key rack include a CNC router, table router and a drill press. 

 

People are still able to register for the Warhawk Arcs and Sparks experience before May 14th and May 15th.

 

The proceeds of the Warhawks Arcs and Sparks experience will go to the Warhawk Manufacturing scholarship fund.

 

The trained instructor will walk people through the process during this event.

 

Students in fifth grade and older are welcomed to attend this event.

Anthony Christian, an AHS Warhawk Manufacturing teacher said, “As an instructor, I have heard the following phrase: I wish I could sign up for that course, it sounds fun and interesting! This is a method to grant that wish. Our hope is that this event lays the foundation for more to come like it.”
