5th
Annual Egg Drop Competition
Belk Court of Hanes Mall, Saturday, February 23, 2008
to celebrate Engineers Week
Join the fun and learn a thing or two at the fifth annual Winston-Salem
/ Forsyth County Egg Drop Competition! This competition is designed to
promote engineering and science in the K-12 community. It’s also an
excellent opportunity to encourage ALL students to consider math,
science and other technical disciplines as career options.
Participants are asked to protect an egg from a second story drop to
keep it from SMASHING when it hits the ground! Accuracy of the drop –
minimizing the weight of the protective device – and minimizing the
number of components in the protective device – are all factors in
determining who wins and who loses…which eggs smash and which eggs
don’t!
Participation is free, but
IMAGINATION is required!
This competition is open to ingenious minds of
all ages.
Compete as an
individual, compete as a team from your school, compete as a family.
Eggs provided on the day of the event.
Winners receive awards, certificates, t-shirts, and cash prizes. This
competition’s sure to be a SMASH!
