 AMS participants with challenge coins as a small token of appreciation for
  the time\, service\, and encouragement they have given to others through 
 STEM and STEAM outreach.\n\nWe will also share a brief Light Snap Circuits
  demonstration as a fun introduction to photonics\, along with updates con
