Prof. Jim Peploski will again bring “Dr. Jim’s Chemistry Magic Show” to the community on Saturday, December 14, from 3-4 p.m. in Science Center 360.
The show, targeted to children and great fun for all ages, will benefit the Potsdam Holiday Fund.
Peploski’s “Miracles, Magic and Mayhem” show will feature 10 to 15 demonstrations, including a free sample of ice cream made by using liquid nitrogen.
Each family or individual attending is asked to bring one new, unwrapped toy or gift to donate to the fund, which provides new toys, clothing, boots and food to families and senior citizens in need in Potsdam, Madrid, Hopkinton, Nicholville, Brasher Falls, Chase Mills, Fort Jackson, West Stockholm and Winthrop, N.Y. Monetary contributions are also welcome in lieu of a purchased gift.
The event is sponsored by Peploski, the Clarkson University Department of Chemistry & Biomolecular Science, and Clarkson’s Office of Student Life & Engagement.
