I bring my 1962 convertible Chevy Impala for display along with a table to showcase the hydraulic system. Four pesto pumps A RC car Canopy that has my banner - The Science of Hydraulics

MAGNETISM: Kids try to build a bridge using metal objects and strong magnets CRAZY CATAPULTS: Experiment with everyday physics as you catapult ping pong balls into a target TREBUCHET MACHINE: Kids get to knock down the cones by launching a tennis ball ECSTATIC ELECTRICITY: Kids try to make their way through a metal maze without making the buzzer go off AIR PRESSURE: kids knock down the targets with Airzookers NASA: Discover tech created for space travel! Test your aim with a laser maze.

Robotics Showcase; 3D and CAD Introduction

We will have multiple demonstrations related to the science of astrophysics, including spectroscopy, types of light such as infrared, telescopes to look at the Sun, optics, and the size/scale of objects in the Universe.

We will have information on animal science and animals in research, trivia, origami interactive puzzles, giveaways, possible prize wheel and many individuals with varying levels of experience within the biotech field.

We want participants to engage in a hands-on electrochemistry activity-- building their own battery. The first battery was built by Alessandro Volta in 1800, long before we had cell phones to power. With some household items, you can build this battery yourself! Participants will use: zinc washers, copper washers, felt or construction paper disks, vinegar, 2 alligator clips, copper wire, plastic tweezers and an LED light. The battery will be assembled on an acrylic stand with supervision.
