Hi Entomologists,

I am looking for ~5 people to help me run a K-12 school outreach event this Tuesday October 8th at 1pm in the Entomology Courtyard.

Please sign up here<https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1D5U_kfVpKIg3MqrtQ1IURBPjtVWiSclsIhcHBI4ii-c/edit?usp=sharing> (R’mail login required) or email me directly so I can add you.

Event: K-12 campus visit (mixed age range of students)
Location: Entomology Courtyard
Organization: Mission Vista Academy
Time: 1:00-2:30pm, setup starting 12:30pm
Participants: 75 (50 students, 25 chaperones, plus one teacher facilitating)

I will give a short presentation and we will have activity stations set up, including live insects. The volunteers will help the students handle the live insects, answer questions, and could speak in the presentation time for 5 minutes about their research or career path.

Thank you,
Dr. Bodil Cass (/Bo)
