When: Thursday, July 30, 7 – 8:30p
How: Show up! There is no cover.
What: Presenters this month:
“Drone Demos” with Dont’e Kelly
Join drone pilot Dont’e Kelly of DKDrones to learn more about what makes a drone, demos, tips for getting started, and helpful do’s and don’ts.
Dont’e Kelly started flying drones in 2016 as a hobby. In his free time, he created obstacle courses to hone his skills. Fast forward through all of the ups and downs of that journey (literally), and he is now providing drone services to individuals and companies around the US.
“Historical Weapons Petting Zoo” with Anna Beard
No, you can’t attack the drones! Play nice. Join Anna to get a hands-on look at a variety of historical weapons with your local nerdy historical swordfighter.
Anna is a Leelanau County native who is back and looking for fellow nerds. After a stint at the University of Michigan where she earned a BFA in Dance, she continued studying her craft while instructing many young people to wave their limbs in artistic ways. Since then she has lived in Austin where she became a historical swordfighter which only increased her already nerdy obsession with dance history. She resides in TC where she loves to safely hit her friends, dance at the drop of a hat, and eat all things cherries.
There is no charge for this event.
