This will take place at the Cooper Alumni Center on the campus of Arkansas State University, from 9:30-3:00. We have space for 150 students. Parking will be available across the street at the First National Bank Arena. I will provide refreshments, but lunch will be on your own.

Students must provide their own transportation. If you register your student please email mclairday@bpsbearcats.com so she let the office know the student will not be on campus.
