We are pleased to welcome Morgan Goodwin and Stephen Hoyt to present: ”How You Can Be a Change Agent: Learn from the Creators of Truckee’s New Makerspace.”

A throw-away culture, our degrading environment, a competitive global economy, a lack of vocational educational opportunities, and a need for skills and tools to create the things that can bring vibrancy and prosperity to our area - these are just some of the reasons behind the creation of the Truckee Roundhouse, Truckee’s makerspace opening this summer.

Learn how the team identified a community need, brought people together to solve it, and why sometimes it just takes grit to make your idea a reality.

Morgan Goodwin, chair of the Truckee Roundhouse and vice mayor of the Town of Truckee, and Stephen Hoyt, a board member of the Roundhouse and owner of Imagitech will talk about their exciting experience of organizing a group of people around a goal by telling their story of starting the Truckee Roundhouse makerspace.

The meeting will be on Monday, May 9th, 6-8 pm at Pizza on the Hill, in Tahoe Donner at 11509 Northwoods Blvd., Truckee. A $5 fee includes pizza and salad. Before and after the presentation, there will be time for networking with other technology professionals who live and work in the Tahoe-Truckee region.
