Children's Activities
Come join us on Saturday, February 2 in Pfahler Hall, Room 209, from 10 am-3 pm for some fun and environmentally-friendly activities for
children. There will be lots of great crafts to make out of everyday materials, like paper towel tubes, used CDs, puzzle pieces, magazines, and much more. Plus we’ll even make our own healthy
and delicious snacks (caution: the snack making activity will include peanut products). You are welcome to stop by even if you did not
pre-register!

Test Drive an Electric Car
Denise Tracy of Bayshore Ford will be offering test drives of a Low-Speed All-Electric Vehicle from Miles Automotive. She will be available on Saturday from 9am to 2pm. Look for her first at a table in Pfahler Atrium. If she’s not there, she’s probably giving a test-drive already and will return to pick up the next person at the fountain (dry) outside of Pfahler Hall.

No pre-registration necessary.
