Here’s what Steve Spangler shared with me…

I’m excited to be joined by my good friend Kathy Sabine, meteorologist extraordinaire, from 9News (KUSA-TV in Denver). Kathy will share some of her best weather predicting secrets and teach us the science behind our most extreme weather in Colorado. But this is not a sit and watch experience. I’ll have you up on your feet learning about the power of air as each person conducts their own science activity. We’re also working on some brand new science experiments that have been specially created just for this event. Learn about cool chemical concoctions, the power of pressure, properties of air, solar energy, extreme cold and the science of sound (lots of sound generated by you!). Guaranteed to have you laughing and learning… just watch out for the flying potatoes.

Weather and Science Day is not just for school groups. Anyone who has a ticket to the game can come early and join in the fun.

Following the event, students and their teachers will attend the Rockies and New York Mets game that begins at 1:10 p.m. School groups will have different seats for the game.
