March 11th through 15th the Boys & Girls Club of Cypress hosted their Pop! Fizz! Splat! Spring Break Camp. This explosively fun weeklong program provided over 150 attendees with fun, hands-on science explorations and messy experiments, such as baking soda and vinegar eruptions, making fizzy lemonade and slime, and coding with real robots!

Spring Break kicked off on Monday when all members were treated to free chicken wings and fries compliments of Buffalo Wild Wings in Cerritos. On Wednesday, March 13th Officer Julie Marquez from the Cypress Police Department brought in her robot police car, Donut, and together they answered the children’s questions. Optional field trips were offered throughout the week to John’s Incredible Pizza, the Microsoft Store in Cerritos for video game design labs, and Laser Quest. On Friday, March 15th all members walked to Veteran’s Park for a field day led by staff from Planet Fitness Cerritos, and enjoyed ice cream sundaes when they returned to the Club.
