Science in Action: Thousands Gather for STEM Day at Coors Field

An interactive event that showcases science in an exciting and engaging way, STEM Day brought thousands of teachers, parents and students from four different states together at Coors Field in Denver. Organized by renowned Science Educator Steve Spangler for the past 13 years, the day began with over 10,000 students participating in various interactive science experiments at the stadium. The crowd erupted in cheers as special guest Dinger from the Colorado Rockies made an appearance followed by a demonstration involving launching balls out of barrels.

The show featured spectacular demonstrations like launching toilet paper out of leaf blowers and creating smoke clouds using liquid nitrogen at a temperature of 320 degrees below zero. One parent, Colorado’s Traffic Tracker Brian Sherrod, shared his experience at the event. He emphasized the importance of engaging children in scientific learning through unique events like STEM Day. He mentioned that events like these provide hands-on, real-time learning experiences that are crucial for student engagement.

After the science demonstrations, everyone in attendance had the opportunity to enjoy a Colorado Rockies game against the San Diego Padres, with the game scheduled to start at 1:10 p.m on Thursday. All in all, STEM Day at Coors Field was a thrilling and educational experience for all who participated.
