What is the science club about?

We're just a group of people who like to get together and have fun! We have a few meetings per semester to discuss important issues pertinent to the science club. The best part about the science club meetings is planning the events. Some of the events planned for the 2007-2008 year are: ranger-led kayaking tour of Whiskeytown lake, a camping trip to Lassen Volcanic National Park, tour of the Redding crime lab, a visit to Turtle bay, a trip to the planetarium, and whatever else the club members wish to do!

Pictures from the sea kayak whale-watching trip out of Trinidad bay. Check out all of the pictures here.

Next up on the agenda, a trip to the planetarium. We will buy ten tickets, it will be first come first served.
After the planetarium, we'll take a tour of Shasta Dam. Please see the notes below, they do not allow certain items on the tour even if they are just on your person...
