Physics Demo Competition, 30 September 2006:

This competition is open to any and all members of SPS clubs in the Carolinas. Come and enter to win Glory and Prizes

Competition will take place from 12:45-1:30pm in McKinnon Hall.

1. You must register your demo by 10 am on Saturday September 30th.
2. Demos should be fairly easy to set up and take down.
3. Demos should not take longer than 5 minutes to explain and show.
4. The cost of the Demo should not exceed $50. Please have a list of items needed and their approximate cost available at registration.
5. You may use fire and or explosive type demos, within reason. However, you must notify us before the conference starts so arrangements can be made to do the demo outside and have a fire extinguisher or two on hand, just in case. When in doubt please ask us.
6. You will be judged on creativity, reproducibility, presentation and explanation. All SPS and NCS-AAPT meeting participants will vote on the winner.
