ST. PAUL — Glenville-Emmons fourth- and fifth-grade students were selected to participate in the “Water Matters” Camp-in program. Fun and science combine naturally to experience a sleepover at the Science Museum of Minnesota. The students explored and discovered how water and science impacts their lives and the future. The camp-in included: Exhibit admission and an exclusive exhibit time in the water special exhibition; an Explore Science workshop featuring hands-on water investigations; a Science LIVE Theater presentation; an Omnitheater film; and an overnight experience in the museum’s one-of-a-kind exhibit galleries. The students were also treated to a pizza dinner, a late night snack, and a continental breakfast. Each student and chaperone received a free T-shirt. When the students left the Science Museum, they traveled to the Minnesota State Capitol for a tour. Free bus transportation to and from St. Paul was included in the camp-in. The camp-in was sponsored by the Science Museum of Minnesota and Flint Hills Resources.
