Have a Ball, Learn About Air Quality with GASP 2011

Updated: Feb 27

Friday, Oct. 21, GASP has the Highmark SportsWorks at the Carnegie Science Center all to ourselves.


Come join us from 6 to 9 PM and run, bounce, spin, and climb on nearly 30 hands-on exhibits. SportsWorks has activities suited for all ages. Think baseball looks easy? Have your fastball clocked and see if you can get it in the strike zone. 


Try climbing to the top of the 25′ climbing wall or strapping into the bungee cords and turn yourself into a yo-yo.


Grab some delicious hors d’ oeuvres or a mixed drink and join us in the conference room to hear from athletes from the Pittsburgh Passion, the Steel City Derby Demons, and USRowing, as well as local health professionals, to hear about air quality and how air pollution affects athletic performance.


End the night by munching on desserts and claiming the silent auction prizes that you bid on, such as the beautiful silver and turquoise pendant or nature print pictured here.


Our annual fall event is a fundraiser, but it is also a great way to reconnect with staff or members and to learn about GASP’s recent work on air quality issues and plans for the future.


Tickets are $50/person ($25 for ages 6-12, free for 5 and under). 


Purchase tickets online, or pay by check or credit card by calling GASP at (412) 325-7382. Parking at the SportsWorks is available for $5.
