Annual Egg Drop!

Wednesday, April 21st, 2010


Please join us at our Annual Egg Drop!
Date & Time: 7:00 pm on April 26, 2010
Where: Cedar Ridge Elementary Parking Lot

Directions on how to make an Egg Parachute:
Remember — your egg will be dropped from the top of an Eden Prairie Fire Truck’s ladder! Build a contraption that will protect your egg from the fall! General rules are no bigger than one cubic foot, no heavier than a pound, egg must be raw and no dangerous or breakable (other than the egg) items involved. A great idea for a parachute is a plastic bag. Any eggs that survive will get to put into our special slingshot!
