WIS initiated
Take Your Daughter to Work Day
in 1994. The
nearly annual event has included both boys and girls since 2002,
and was renamed Kids’ Day @ SLAC. A video documentation
professional, Dr Cynthia Gehrie, shot over ten hours of video in
the preparation of and during Kids’ Day 2006. Parts of this
footage, as well as photographs from past Kids’ and Daughters’
Days, have been incorporated into a short (about 23 minutes)
fast paced movie. WIS is pleased to present the movie so you can
be amazed at what the kids do in our shops and labs and you will
learn a little about
SLAC’s
technical activities yourselves.
Portions of
science talks and all nineteen workshops are included in the
Kids’ Day movie. Also included are interviews with scientists,
engineers, technicians, other volunteers and SLAC
administrators. The movie captures the excitement, inspiration
and sense of community that the day engenders. The movie will
start at 12:10 pm sharp in the Kavli Auditorium. Time for
questions and comments will follow.
The next Kids’ Day will be on Tuesday, August 21, 2007
