4 -  
THE annual family picnic celebrating Independence Day, 
All family members are invited !  
Greg invites RCCR members and their families to the pond at 57-B Long Pond Rd, (enter at Plane Lane) Rochester NY 14612, 585-225-6461. A grill will be available for anything (within reason) which you bring to heat and eat for lunch. It's a day of fun and float flying. Bring your plane to fly, and fly it off the water. If you just want to watch, it's fun, but you'll wish you had a plane on floats also. Noon until all the food is gone, the flying is over, and none of us can stand one-another any more!! Usually there are firewords around the pond at dusk - a good show.

13-14 - The annual Science Exploration Days provide a unique opportunity for students from the six-county area to attend seminars and exhibits presented by local scientists, professors, and professionals. The two day event is held on the campus of St. John Fisher College in mid-May. For many years, Central Western Section has presented a two-day event in May at which science students are exposed to relevant, interesting, and up-to-date science and technology topics. Area leaders representing industry, research, education, and professional organizations share their expertise with students in a seminar format or hands-on exhibits. Each day, about 30 seminars are offered to 700 students coming from middle and high schools throughout the six-county CWS membership area. Most of the speakers and exhibitors return each year because they wish to share the fascinating world of science with eager youngsters. They realize their participation makes this event a noteworthy one in our community.
Grades 7–12 are invited to attend the thirty-eighth annual Science Exploration Days (SED) at St. John
Fisher College next May. The dates are planned as follows:
Grades 7–8 (9) Wednesday, May 13, 2009 Time: 9:30 AM - 1:00 PM
