This week, I hosted my event. It was a huge success. There were approximately 100 students that attended, which was fantastic. All of the students were impressed by the company representatives, and the company representatives were impressed by the student turnout. I created a short survey for both the students and the representatives. I asked the students if they were interested in aerospace before and after the event. I asked the representatives if they thought the event was successful and what they would have changed.
We also had our final rounds of group presentations. My peers gave me several pointers on how to improve my final presentation. I will take these to heart for my final presentation.

This week, I continued to advertise the event. I created and posted posters around the school. I also created an event with social media and invited several people. It is a better way to gauge audience size than passing out tickets because people check their Facebook, etc. very often, reminding them of the event. I also spoke to many of the math and science teachers about offering extra credit to attendees, and the majority of them said that they would offer it.
I also received a confirmation of attendance from Stinger Ghaffarian Technologies, another contractor. They are the ninth booth of the event, which should help with interest.
Over the break, I will continue to advertise my event on the internet.

This week, I focused mostly on advertisement of the event, concentrating on social media. I also used some of my contacts who are in various STEM-related clubs to spread the word about the event. I have already given out approximately 12 tickets, however that is only a fraction of the amount which I would like to give out. I also helped a fellow student with her project, and she will allow me to advertise my event at hers.
I have to start really pushing my event, including putting up posters in classrooms.
