Free Family Fair features feathered friends
St. Paul Lutheran School will be hosting a family friendly science fair Thursday, February 16 from 6:30 to 8 p.m. This event is free and open to the public. All St. Paul students from preschool through 8th grade will be participating in the fair and each student from kindergarten up will host an exhibit.
In addition to the student created projects, two family shows will be offered throughout the night.
•Raptors in the Modern World will focus on the natural history and conservation of several species of birds of prey found locally and contributions that audience members can make in their survival. A bald eagle (largest), red-tailed hawk (most common), peregrine falcon (fastest) and saw whet owl (smallest) are part of the live bird line-up. Guest speaker and Hilton resident Paul Schnell, a naturalist and award-winning nature photographer, will host this session.
•The Wild World of Chemistry will introduce the audience to some of the amazing principles of chemistry through a visual presentation that engages both young and old. Dr. Carl Gaupp, Hilton High School chemistry teacher and St. Paul alumni, will lead this session.
