This community is part of a nationwide initiative supported locally to raise awareness about the brain’s ability to heal through modern therapies such as neurofeedback EEG detailed functional brain scan, low-level laser therapy, Neuro-rehabilitation Exercises, and neuro-functional medicine. We have been optimizing this treatment system over the last 10 years and are so grateful to finally be able to share it with our communities and loved ones. https://brainrestorecenters.com/ 49 Randolph Rd, Middletown, Connecticut 860-365-9445 info@trilogyhnp.com

S.P.A.R.K.&nbsp;stands for&nbsp;Science. Play. Action. Research. Knowledge,&nbsp;and that’s exactly what the morning is all about. Students will dive into interactive labs, ask big questions, and explore how science connects to the world around them.

Snack Science: Cracking the Code of Carbs, Fats &amp; Proteins
Students will test everyday foods to uncover the building blocks of life - carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins.
From Cabbage to Chemistry: A Color-Changing Exploration of pH
Using red cabbage as a natural indicator, students will experiment with acids and bases and watch chemistry come alive in vibrant color.
Air Apparent: The Invisible Force All Around Us
Through hands-on experiments, students will explore the properties of air—and discover just how powerful something invisible can be.
Event Details:
Date:&nbsp;Saturday, May 16
Time:&nbsp;9:00 a.m. – 12:15 p.m.&nbsp;(Check-in begins at 8:45 a.m.)
