• Thanks to all the SPSers that assisted in setting up and running the demonstrations at the Engineering Competition on April 14. The Loop of Death and Bed of Nails impressed all of our visitors. The highlight of the day was when our President, Dr. John Smarelli, sat inside the loop! See the photos from the event in the Photo Section .

• We had a great time flying kites at Shelby Farms on April 2. Kudos to those of you that made your own kites and an additional congratulations if your kite actually flew! Photos of the kite-fly are posted in the Photo Section.
