Ever had a 96-foot drop as a part of your demo show?

Six Flags America

On April 24th, 2009, thousands of high school physics students will descend on Six Flags America, near Washington, DC, and its gut-wrenching, free-falling, thrilling rides—and the Society of Physics Students will be there to welcome them!

Register here to join SPS volunteers from across the Mid-Atlantic region as we take physics to the students:

  • Performing demos
  • Distributing equipment
  • Running experiments
  • Sharing college experiences

The first 30 registrants will receive a free t-shirt to wear to the event and keep!
