(300 Cedar St)*. The event is open to local middle school
students and their family members and is typically attended by ~150-200

*hands-on science demonstrations* while interacting with
our volunteers before moving into the auditorium for our *science talks*.

Our volunteers will help us run the event smoothly by assisting in setting
up and running our demonstrations while interacting with attendees. The
following roles are available and will be assigned at our volunteer meeting
on December 1st: set up (12:00 - 2:00 pm), run event (2:00 - 4:00
pm), and clean up (4:00 - 5:00 pm).
