The 'What If' festival starts at 10 am, but presenters are setting up their tents gearing up for all the curious minds to come out and try out their hands-on demos.
The 'grab and go' 120 lb robot made by a team of students from Coronado High School placed 7th in last year's national division. It's one example of innovative technologies that are being created right in our community's back yard.
There are over 100 exhibitors showcasing their creativity and wanting to teach their skills to others.
It'll be a day filled with fun, exploration and learning. There is even a scavenger hunt with a grand prizes of an iPad or a Samsung Galaxy
The fair runs from 10 am until 4 pm. It spans a six-block radius going from from Vermijo to Colorado, as well as Nevada to Sahwatch in downtown Colorado Springs.
