Wonderland's Annual Math and Physics Day
The Engineering Student Societies' Council of Ontario (ESSCO) is looking for individuals to help with Wonderland's annual Math and Physics Day on Friday, May 11th, 2012. We are looking for an event Director to coordinate our volunteers, as well as up to 30 volunteers.

Math and Physics Day is a Wonderland outreach event for grade 5-12 students where teams of students present roller coasters models that they have designed for a GTA-wide competition, as well as learn about the science, mathematics and physics concepts involved in amusement park attractions. This year, Wonderland will also be flying in an engineer from Bolliger and Mabillard, the firm which designed Leviathan and Behemoth, to host the contest and present a lecture.

ESSCO typically sends about 30 volunteers to assist with logistics and be an undergraduate student presence at the event. Volunteers get:
A food voucher for the day of the event
Complimentary admission to the park after the event finishes at about 3 pm
Complimentary admission to the park on any 2012 regular operating day
The opportunity to participate in a regional high school outreach event and promote engineering as a worthwhile profession to elementary/high school students
Volunteers are required from 8 am to 2:30 pm on May 11st, 2012. If you are interested in the opportunity, please fill out this form. To volunteer, select "volunteer" on the form. If you are interested in taking on a greater leadership role and coordinating our volunteers, select "director" on the form. ESSCO will select one Director and up to 30 volunteers. This is a great opportunity to gain leadership experience and participate in a large high school outreach event.
