Summer Catapult Challenge

Come and test your design and building skills in the Catapult Design Challenge! Participants will use provided supplies (such as craft sticks, rubber bands, plastic spoons, etc.) to design and build their own catapults. Once constructed, we will test the creations to see which one can launch a small object the farthest or hit specific targets.

This program is a hands-on opportunity to learn about potential and kinetic energy, the laws of motion, and the engineering design process.
