Free physics demonstration at UWG
The University of West Georgia is hosting a physics demonstration for children next Friday, Oct. 29, from 7:00 – 8:30 p.m. The class will be led by two of the university’s physics professors, who will present such scientific wonders as bubbles, burning steel, a bed of nails and an electrified hot dog and pickle. (I don’t know what “electrified hot dog and pickle” means; I just saw it on the flier and found it too fascinating to leave out.) UWG bills the event as appropriate for ages 6 and up.
As I’ve said about UWG before, it’s a great resource and the price is right on their kids’ classes, but be prepared for a long drive — it’s about an hour’s drive to the campus from where I-285 intersects I-20 on the west side of town.
