Join us on November 14th, 2026 for our third annual Techs on Decks event!
Techs on Decks celebrates Innovation. We celebrate the anniversary of the Apollo 12 Moon mission since the USS Hornet (CV 12) was the recovery ship for that mission and innovation from then and now! Exhibitors will be on hand to share exciting new technology and career opportunities aboard one of the Navy’s most historic ships! Our main sponsors from last year have re-committed, so we are pleased to announce we will have free entry for students and educators and free pizza and cookies!
