Middlebury Five-O: Sister to Sister Program

[ezcol_1third]

[/ezcol_1third] [ezcol_2third_end] A whole panel of guests representing the organization ‘Sister to Sister’, talking about the giddy fun they have as Middlebury College students connecting with local area middle school girls – playing wild games, exploring explosive science, cooking decadent snacks, and much more. This group of confident, capable and committed women articulately convey how crucial it is for girls to have positive role models to engage with as they navigate their way into adolescence, striving to gain an affirming sense of self while bombarded by unhealthy stereotypes and expectation in our culture. A lively and heartening show, overflowing with joy and empowerment. Recorded 10/26/16.[/ezcol_2third_end][ezcol_1third]

Skateboard Science at the Mary Hogan School

[ezcol_1third]

[/ezcol_1third] [ezcol_2third_end] Two skaters show off tricks and entertain as they teach about the physics of skateboarding: how helmets distribute the forces of an impact like a bed of nails distributes the weight of a person, how your center of gravity moves as you do, and how objects in motion tend to stay in motion until acted on by another force. Several kids got to volunteer, and one brave staff member even let a skater ollie over him! Recorded by Middlebury Community Television 10/18/16.
