College from 9 am – 3 pm. GIM and GRIP are for the purpose of exposing students
in 6th, 7th, and 8th grades to Science, Math, Technology, Engineering and
Technical Education careers. Students will participate in 1 large morning
workshop presented by the Air Force Academy and 3 smaller workshops. In
addition to the workshops, the day includes breakfast, lunch, and a
t-shirt. We have some AMAZING workshop presenters this year.
We know that the students are going to have a fabulous time with all the

iFly
The second annual iFly indoor skydiving field trip was a huge
success! Nearly thirty students from 7th through 12th grade participated. The
trip included an interactive math and physics lesson where students learned about the forces
acting on an object in free fall, as well as the effects of an object's shape and
its frontal area inside the wind tunnel. Students also participated in a safety class to learn
how to "fly" safely and read hand signals from the flight
instructors. We took turns in the flight tunnel and did a science
lab about our experience. Thank you to everyone who participated, and we hope
to see you back again next year!
Check out pictures from our awesome day below!

Taurid Meteor Shower
Are you looking for a fun and unique experience this week? Head outside on Wednesday or Thursday night, November 11th or 12th, and do a little star gazing!
The Taurid meteor shower is expected to peak on these evenings. This also coincides with a new moon, meaning the skies will be nice and dark, making for excellent meteor viewing conditions!
When viewing a meteor shower, the most important factors are patience and location. A little help from the weather doesn't hurt either!
Choose a clear night and get away from the city lights. Look straight up and give your eyes time to adjust to the dark. If possible, lay down or recline in a comfortable chair. A couple of blankets and a warm beverage are probably a great idea at this time of year as well. Once you are warm and comfortable, relax and wait. Enjoy the beautiful view while you wait for meteors to streak across the sky.
