Activity Day
April 11th, 2002
A camera was sent along with each of the
activity chaperones. All the duplicates were
given away to students on the day of the awards
ceremony. Some scenes from the activities are
posted below, as well.
Friday, April 5th is Activity Day.
You'll be taking part in two of the activities
below, one in the morning and one in the afternoon;
you'll be asked for your preference on the
registration form.
Note that some of the activities have limited enrolement,
and sign up will be first-come first-serve. And remember
that the "first-come" is based on the date of the
last change you made to your project registration,
not on the date that you first registered.
