Rescheduled nonpartisan scientist walk and talk at Herman C. Michael Park June 3

Hello! Back in April we had to postpone the “Walk and Talk with a Scientist” event because of threatening weather.  Even though I tried to get the word out that we had to cancel, earnest scientists and members of the public popped up like mushrooms! We ended up having some wonderful conversations while walking in the drizzling rain and gathered under the pavilion. See a photo below of some of the people who came . One young person who attended was a student from North Oconee High. I hope students interested in STEM careers and interested in the world around them will join us — and you folks, too! I’ve invited our county commissioners and other elected officials such as Jody Hice.  We will need to be nonpartisan at the event to protect scientists, all of whom must set politics aside as they do the rigorous work of science. Please help me get the word out to scientists and the public.  Here’s the press release below for this free, drop-in event. And note
