  •  08/21/2023
     6:15 pm CDT - 7:00 pm CDT

Tuition: $7

Ready to learn some new engineering skills? We’ll be experimenting with elastic potential energy as we make Fling Fliers that really zip through the air!
You do not have to be a scout to take this class.
This is a live, small group, online class. Materials you’ll need:
heavy paper, a couple of straws, rubber bands, a couple of paperclips, masking tape and a craft stick. You’ll want something to add weight to the front. Good items include: a piece of hot glue stick (the narrow kind), a pencil eraser(the type you buy when your eraser wears out), or some playdough or clay.
Scholarships available for those with financial need, just ask. Troop leaders, we’re happy to schedule a workshop just for your troop so that your girls can all be together for a shared experience. Just contact us and we’ll work with you to schedule.
