Engineer's Day 2019

ISPE Peoria Chapter member, Emily Munday, PE of Crawford, Murphy and Tilly reports that her and other volunteer engineers had fun inspiring 100+ future engineers on Engineering Day at the Peoria Riverfront Museum.  The kids built paper bridges and tested how to make them stronger to hold more pennies.  The kids also built marshmallow structures to test on an earthquake table and all this while talking about basic principles and problem solving. Other engineering firms represented were Wood Environmental & Infrastructure Solutions by Michael Hoffman, PE; Maurer-Stutz, Inc. by Daniel Gehman, PE; and also from Crawford Murphy and Tilly were Jeremy Wasilewski, PE and Megan Splittstoesser, PE.
