2009 – The Year of the Storm
|
The 2009 Illinois State Fair was the year of the
storm. The
week started out HOT, then severe weather moved through the area on Sunday
and Monday followed by tornado warnings on Wednesday, causing extensive
damage to some of the tents near our tent. Fortunately, our tent
was spared, and the show went on. The end of the week
included some exceptionally cool weather and occasional rain showers. Hope
you made it to join us.

A consortium of Illinois Sections of the American Chemical Society is hosting a booth at the Illinois State Fair. We are presenting a variety of exciting chemistry demonstrations and hands-on activities suitable for young students, as well as an interactive simple chemistry quiz. Literature is available on environmental issues, lists of educational resources, and ACS activities for students, science teachers, and the general public. Packets of information, including resource CDs, are offered to teachers visiting our booth. Where is our tent? Here's a map of Springfield, a map to the Fair and a map to help you find our tent. Conservation World is in the north-west corner of the Fairgrounds. Local weather at the Fairgrounds. |
