Kids Day @ SLAC
2005, will be held on Wednesday, August 10. As in the past, SLAC
employees and contractors may sponsor a child who can attend. This
year there will be 19 hands-on workshops for the kids to attend.
These include electronics, mechanics, welding, rockets, magnetics,
radiation, vacuum and paleontology to name a few. There are four new
workshops added to the choices: monster muscles, catapults, optics
and electric motors. The workshops are grouped so that each kid
attends different workshops in the morning and the afternoon. A kid
would need to attend Kids Day for six years in order to attend all
of the workshops!
Registration will begin Monday, July 5, and will be closed on
Friday, July 22. There are additional safety considerations this
year and each parent will be required to read about the risks
involved in each workshop as well as to comply with required PPE
(long pants and closed-toe shoes) for each kid. The cost for the day
is $12 and will cover a t-shirt, lunch and ice cream. This year’s
t-shirt logo design winner is Jenine Fernandez, age 14. Her central
figure is an inquisitive Albert Einstein—very timely for 2005, the
‘Year of Einstein!’ |
