Thanks to everyone who visited the Falmouth Academy booth at the Woods Hole Science Stroll!

From making bouncy balls to casting votes in our Dum Dums vs. Smarties survey, there was no shortage of hands-on science and good conversation. We loved spending the day with so many curious minds. Thanks for stopping by!
