On Thursday, August 19, SLAC will host its
annual Kids Day. This is a time to bring your kids, ages 9 to 16, to
SLAC for them to learn more about the wonderful place you work.

This year we will be able to accommodate
234 kids, so register early to secure a spot. Registration begins July
22 and ends August 12 or when all the workshops are filled. The all-day
event begins at 8:30 a.m. and ends at 3:30 p.m. The cost is $10 per
child, which includes a barbecue lunch as well as a Kids Day t-shirt.
There are six new workshops for the kids
to attend this year: anthropology, safety, facilitation, GLAST, welding
and biochemistry. These are in addition to those offered in previous
years such as cryogenics, electronics, magnetics and metrology. Dr.
Graham George (aka Dr. BOOM) (SSRL) will give a science talk to the kids
along with parents and sponsors.
Volunteers are needed to help with the
Kids Day festivities. If you are interested, please contact Lisa
Mongetta (Ext. 2733,
mongetta@slac.stanford.edu).
