2013 GCER Field Trip

We have a fun (optional) field trip planned for our GCER attendees this year. On Tuesday, July 9th we will be taking pre-registered attendees to a special event at Science Museum Oklahoma in Oklahoma City. Teams can choose to attend the event using their own transportation, or you can ride one of our reserved charter buses to the event. The buses will leave the Embassy Suites around 6:15 pm and the event is scheduled to begin at the Science Museum at 7 pm. The event will run until 11 pm and the buses will leave the venue shortly after that. We should be back to the Embassy Suites and unloaded before midnight.

The museum will be reserved for our group only and the evening will begin with a fun Science Live! performance in the auditorium. After that, participants will be free to explore the hands on science exhibits on their own. There will be special hands-on science experiment stations set up all around the museum as well as admittance to the planetarium show if you choose. There will also be complimentary snacks.

Participating in the field trip is optional and you must select it on the registration form if you and your team would like to attend. It's $25 per person if you will be providing your own transportation to the museum. If you would like to ride the charter bus there will be an additional charge of $15 per person.
