Hall of Fame Teams Up with NASAto Help Students Bring Baseball to Mars
COOPERSTOWN, NY – The National Aeronautics and Space Administration has its sights set on Mars. And its plans just might include bats, gloves and balls – if some Central New York students have anything to say about it.
The National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum, in conjunction with NASA, will host an Imagine Mars workshop Sept. 19-20 in Cooperstown. Students in fourth through seventh grade in area schools will work over two days to create a Baseball Stadium experience on Mars, including uniforms, stadium concepts, concessions and rules of the game. Taking information they learn about the Martian environment and the facts they learn about baseball, students will work together to devise a way baseball can be played on Mars.
Special NASA guests, including Mars scientist Jim Bell from Cornell University, will be on hand throughout the workshop. During the final hour of the workshop, parents and family members will be invited to attend the final presentation in the Museum’s Bullpen Theater.
The workshop runs from 1-4 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 19, and from 1-5 p.m. on Sunday, Sept. 20. Cost is $5 per student, which covers materials, supplies and admission to the Museum for both days.
The workshop is limited to 50 participants. To register, visit http://education.baseballhalloffame.org/something_new/ or call 607-547-0362 to request a registration form.
