The question on everyone's minds this week, is what will Ashley, a chemist at KSWSC, be for Halloween?
Here's some of her past costumes, an ELISA plate and a vial. Any guesses what she will be tomorrow? Stay tuned. #Halloween #Chemist #CostumeIdeas

#Eddies are an important water feature to look out for. An eddy is formed when the main flow is blocked (rock, tree, bank, etc) and pushed to one side. The #water in the eddy's backflow can be #dangerous for swimmers or those using small #watercraft. #WaterSafety #StaySafe
