CCC kicks-off energy exposition
Beginning Friday morning and continu

Experimental Energy Exposition will be un

workshops and exhibits on energy.
The physics class has had the idea for
the energy fair for quite some time, but
because of hectic schedules, it took a lot of
time to get the fair going, said instructor
Mike Aronson. He is ver/ pleased with the
progress of the energy fair.
The solar collector will be oni

solar collectors.
Another class project that will
