Camp Flowworks Wonderweek
From Monday, July 06 2009
To Wednesday, July 15 2009
Every day

      Forget the hot summer weather! Take the plunge into Camp FlowWorks FlowWorks unleashes a tsunami of wet, wild fun.  This state-of-the-art exhibit dives into the forces and properties of water through currents, vortices and rapids, exploring the fascinating concept of fluid dynamics!  It’s not only about playing with water, but about experimenting with it. 

      • Junk Boat Regatta: Daily Special. Bounties of buoyant boats battle for best.  Build your own “green” boat and sail it along a race course. Test it in FlowWorks exhibit.

              Sunday, July 12:  1 to 5 p.m.

      • Will It Float?:  Daily Special.  Time to bust some myths about what does and doesn’t float!  Will a bowling ball, bag of ice, a wooden stool and big jar of olives float in a giant tank of water?  You vote, we’ll see it if floats!  Bring something and we may test it, too!
