Paramonts Carowinds in Charlotte NC also has a Physics and Science Day. I have gone for four years now and the students think it is great. Call them for info. They have a book that contains worksheets for their particular rides. It is set up for various age groups - elementary, middle school and high school. My students love to see how the formulas we have studied all year are applied in amusement park settings. I use the PASCO accelerometers and they are great for the price. Mine were $5 for both vertical and horizontal accelerometers. Joel Tassie Brookland Cayce High School Cayce, SC
