4-H National Youth Science Day

Wayne County youth participated in the 4-H National Youth Science Day on October 5, 2011.

With the help of teen leaders, young people created and launched compressor-powered rockets.

They created the rocket body, nose, and fins using paper, markers, and tape. Teen leaders helped younger children create rockets. 

Youth refined their rockets for multiple launches adapting nose pieces and adding fins.

Teen leaders supervised the launches using an air compressor.
