Save a snowball for science center

PITTSBURGH

Carnegie Science Center has announced its annual Snowball Day celebration of the summer solstice, and now is the time to get ready.

All visitors who make a snowball this winter, save it in their freezer, and bring it in on the first day of summer — June 21 — will be able to choose what they pay for admission. In addition to naming their own price, visitors will be able to launch their snowballs into the Ohio River (weather permitting).

In past years, hundreds of snowballs survived the winter and spring in freezers throughout the region and made their way to the Science Center in coolers, freezer bags and plastic containers.
