The Washburn District High School physics class will be holding an Italian Dinner and Silent Auction on Friday, April 4, at the Washburn Elementary School Cafeteria. The cost will be $3 for children, $6 for adults or $15 for a family.
The fundraiser is to help students attend a physics workshop in Saco that will define physics laws and concepts, while demonstrating through hands-on experiences. The students will be meeting with amusement park designers, engineers and maintenance workers. After each meeting students will experience the laws and forces of physics in action by riding and watching the roller coasters and other rides.
This field trip will cost $150 per student which covers transportation, lodging, meals and the registration fee. If anyone would like to sponsor a student or donate to these students, call Tracy Reed at 455-4501 or treed@msad45.net.
