491 Splash Science
Dive into the wettest week of summer! Create a catapult and test out trajectory as you launch water balloons. Explore buoyancy and displacement as you build and float your own boat. With a water blaster in hand, experiment with water pressure and hydraulics, then launch a water rocket 50 feet into the air. Swim and float in both freshwater and saltwater pools and experience the difference in density firsthand! This is summer water fun at its best...with a physics twist! (A "get-wet t-shirt will be provided to campers for water activities.)
