Science workshops, show on Kauai next week

Advertiser Staff

Rick Lee, a scientist from San Diego-based General Atomics and Alex Nagy, an engineer from the Princeton University Plasma Physics Laboratory, will conduct two free science workshops next week for Kaua'i teachers.

The workshops are Thursday from 3:30-5:30 p.m. and Saturday from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at the Kaua'i War Memorial Convention Hall.

Lee and Nagy are coming to Kaua'i to host the 5th annual General Atomics Science Show for fourth, sixth and eighth grade students. Participants will have the opportunity to make a science project relating to the theme "Totally Electric" that they can share with classmates.

To register for the workshop or for more information, call 338-1588. Enrollment is limited.

The General Atomics Science Show and teachers' workshop are made possible through the U.S. Department of Energy's Office of Fusion Energy Sciences, with support from General Atomics Inc. and the Princeton University Plasma Physics Laboratory.
