Summer 2006 Cross Country Trip
What an experience! We filled up the veggie
oil tanks and went from Tucson to Boston and back. We spread our brand of science
education and fun while also establishing bonds with the community of
science educators across the country. We made appearances at science centers,
schools and other stops on the drive east, with our final destination
at the meeting of the American Association
of Physics Teachers in Syracuse, NY. Please read our trip
log to find out about the epic journey!
We would like to take a moment to thank our many sponsors
without whom this trip would simply not have been possible. Companies
across the country have jumped on board to offer their assistance, from
the lettering on our bus to the oil in our engine to the wheels and tires
and hotels along the way, thank you all for your contribution to science
education!
