Jenel is looking for someone else to coordinate Presentation Day next Jan.
Suggestions for how to prepare the members for Presentation Day: Have a workshop on how to create a demonstration or presentation; presentations should be taught within each and every project; lack of invitation to State Fair may be a factor in low turnout in presentation day.
