Tour Day 1
The Purdue Solar Team began packing up in the pouring rain at 6:00am. Although wet, we managed to get all packed up and leave around 8:00am.
Our first stop in Winamac was Galfab Inc., a class of High School students from Caston High School visited us there and we were able to say lots about the solar car.
After visiting Galfab we left for Winamac High School and talked to over 100 students among several groups.
After leaving Winamac High School we left for R&S Welding and Fabricating and lunch. We then left Winamac for Thomas Jefferson Middle School in Valparaiso, IN.
At Thomas Jefferson Middle School we talked to lots of students about the solar car and the enitre process of Design, Build, Test, and Race.
In all we had a very successful first day of the tour although hampered slightly by the early morning rain we managed to have an enjoyable day. We look foreward to having another successful day on Tuesday.
