What do electronics, ice cream, metrology, Graham George, hot dogs, cryogenics and 156 excited children have in common?

They are all part of Kids Day @ SLAC 2003. Mark your calendar for Tuesday, July 15, as this promises to be another fun filled educational and career choice exposure event for our children as well as our many volunteers.

Register in June

Registration for this event is from June 1 to June 27, or until the workshops fill—and they fill fast!

In response to last year’s requests, lunch will be included in the day’s festivities, and each child will receive a commemorative T-shirt with a very cool design. There will be a charge of $10 per child to cover these items.

Workshops will include: Metrology, Cryogenics, Electronics, Vacuum, Mechanics, Biology, Radiation, Magnetics, Waves and Video Conferencing. Additional features of the day include a welcome from our Director Jonathan Dorfan, a tour of the Fire Station at lunch, an ice cream social and a Science Talk (and booms) with Graham George.
