WKU’s Hardin Planetarium hosting fall break camp Oct. 6-10

  • Monday, September 8th, 2014

Wacky Engineering is the theme for the 2014 Science Curiosity Investigation fall break camp at WKU’s Hardin Planetarium.

The camp for students in grades 3-6 will be held from 8 a.m. to noon Oct. 6-10. Registration is $120 and is limited to 20 campers.

Rube Goldberg became famous for creating overly complicated machines that combined an improbably connected series of events designed to produce an absolutely simple result. Participants in this fall’s Science Curiosity Investigation Camp will be pursuing the same folly as they engage in fun, interactive investigations to stimulate curiosity, encourage cooperative discovery and plunge into problem solving.

For information or registration, visit http://www.wku.edu/hardinplanetarium/camp.php or contact the Hardin Planetarium at (270) 745-4044.

Contact: Ronn Kistler, (270) 745-4044.

Registration is under way for Wacky Engineering, the fall break camp at WKU's Hardin Planetarium.
