UNR FIELD DAY, September 8, 2012 @ THE NEW GREENHOUSES ON VALLEY ROAD!

Susan Howe and Jamie Roice of the Nevada Radon Education Program handed out free test kits. 91 kits were given out!!!

Sarah Chvilicek and Samantha Shoupe of the Nevada 4-H Program experimented with solar radiation and light. Kids used color changing beads to make bracelets they could take home with them.

Ed Smith and Sonya Sistare of the Living With Fire Program had their "ember house" on hand to teach kids and their parents about the potential fire dangers to their homes. Kids are instructed to hit the house with "embers" in the spots where they are most likely to burn (the orange areas).

Heidi Kratsch and a group of Master Gardener's held a zucchini growing competition to see who could squash the record!
