There is a annual festival that celebrates the river, conservation, art, and music, next weekend close to my home. I was planning on attending, to go on a river cleanup. But, I got an email a couple nights ago asking me to take on a lead volunteer role of a booth for an "environmental club". My cousin and I will be creating a booth for educating chilren and adults about solar power with some hands-on activities.
I am excited for the opportunity and greatful that I was chosen to take on this responsibility. However, there is a little problem.
I don't know anything about solar power!
I have been told I will have a solar oven and some toys - without instructions. I get them tommorrow.
I'll have a week to figure it all out. A week.
I've done some internet research and have some fun ideas...but still...what the hell am I supposed to do when I am asked to explain solar power? I'm going to try to squueze in a little self-education this week, but I have a full courseload this semester, 3 clubs I'm involved in, and the Student government. Doesn't leave much extra time.
So, anyone have any ideas or recommendations?
Smile and act deaf?
I know I can do that!
Seriously, I could use some ideas here!
