Lake Forest Park Elementary Science Night

A team of 3 graduate students set up a table at Lake Forest Park Elementary's Annual Science Night with information about careers in the atmospheric sciences. Kelly McCusker, Kristen Rasmussen and Reid Wolcott manned the table and performed lab demos for interested children and their parents.
