Families may choose between a two or three class option with classes happening on Tuesday, August 11, Tuesday, August 18 and Tuesday, August 25. Pricing varies and advance registration is required.
For older children ages seven through 11, Science-Dipity In the Park will offer an outdoor class specially designed with social distance learning in mind. Students may choose between six or 12 hours of materials-intensive, genuine experiences in science. Baker will lead students in creating multiple science artifacts each day with engaging experiments that explore exciting science concepts. Students will make paper jump, paper clips float and put a cloud in a bottle, plus much more. These classes happen at Centennial Park from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. beginning Wednesday, Aug. 12 through Thursday, Aug. 27.
