Derby Neck Library to host science sleuthing presentation




DERBY - Derby Neck Library is calling all super-sleuths who love science--join us over Zoom at 1 p.m. Saturday for a special presentation by the Connecticut Science Center!
A botched bubble-blowing contest, some wonky security footage. Sounds like it's time to use science to solve this crime! 
Help us gather evidence as we retrace the steps of the crime and discover not only who did it, but what caused the sabotage! 
Together, we will look for evidence of chemical reactions and identify the unique properties of newly formed products to help solve the chem-mystery!
This program is targeted to ages 8+, but all are welcome! 
Registration is required for this program to receive both the required handout and the Zoom link. 
If you're not already on Derby Neck Library's program mailing list, send us a message [on Facebook] or call 203-734-1492 to be added!
