This year, in honor of our 4th anniversary (more than pi times!), we're
saving Sunday March 14th for nursing our gluttonous pie hangovers and
getting the party started on Friday. There will be a riveting:

Public Calculation of Pi - Come see how dropping sticks on the ground in
front of the Science Center can calculate pi. Make fun of us if it doesn't
work. All day Friday!

Pi Recitation Contest - recite or approximate all the digits you know of
pi. In any base! Prizes to the longest and bestest one. It's like
Spellbound the documentary, only up close and live with much cooler kids!

Pie Eating Contest - all the pie you can eat in 3 min 12 seconds! Be sure
to come find out about our Special Surprise Prize - new this year!

And of course, there will be food! Nearly-entire portions of things, from
Pi to Pie and almost-full glasses of Punch and Cookies with Nearly All
Their Crumbs Still Attached!

Oh mathematical gluttony!                                       Math Club
