NFPA Fluid Power Action Challenge

Teams of middle school students design and build a fluid power mechanism and compete against their peers. NFPA members who serve as sponsors and judges create connections and elevate their company visibility among local schools and families. The Action Challenge will be hosted once again by Peninsular Cylinder this spring, but the event is in need of financial and volunteer support. There are varying levels to choose from ranging from $250 - $2,500 to put tools in students' hands and provide them the early opportunity to begin developing engineering skills. NFPA members are encouraged to attend to serve as judges or lend their technical expertise to competing teams. Your sponsorship helps provide the kits, materials, event supplies, meals, awards, and other resources needed to give students an engaging, hands-on experience with our technology.
Learn about sponsorship here!

Workshop Day Will be conducted at each participating school. NFPA member participation is welcome.
