The New Hampshire Fisher Cats are bringing STEM in the Stadium Day directly to you! With help from our friends at WMUR, SNHU, Wildlife Encounters, NH Audobon, Blue Ocean Society, and more, we're sharing some of the most fun-filled educational videos New Hampshire has to offer. STEM in the Stadium is one of our favorite days of the season, and we can't wait to get back to the ballpark, where students can explore all the events and educational booths throughout the stadium concourse during the game.
The New Hampshire Fisher Cats would like to thank you for your interest in Educational Days at the Ballpark. We understand how difficult it is to coordinate and plan for field trips, and we strive to make sure that you and your class have an enjoyable learning experience at Northeast Delta Dental Stadium. The Fisher Cats have built an improved program. We encourage you to spend the game exploring all the events and educational booths that will be set throughout the concourse on the Educational Days!
Presenters & Tabling Sponsors will be announced at a later date.
Kevin Skarupa takes us through a day in the life of a meteorologist! He's got a pretty cool job...but stay to the end to find out what time he has to wake up in the morning (yikes!). Whatever it takes to give New Hampshire the most accurate forecast possible!
He's the most popular feathered friend since the one from Sesame Street! From their home office, our friends from Wildlife Encounters Ecology Center & Farm School introduce us to this loveable umbrella cockatoo. You won't believe how long his life expectancy is!
Whales, Dolphins, Porpoises, oh my! You'll learn about all of them and more on this whale watch from Blue Ocean Society. There's even a quiz at the end...

Science, Technology, Engineering and Math are all at the heart of modern day baseball. We've put together a whole new set of baseball-themed problems for our 2020 STEM Workbook -- can you solve them all?
Come join hundreds of other schools from throughout New Hampshire, Massachusetts and Maine, as they take part in an educational setting while attending a professional baseball game. The Fisher Cats encourage you to plan your lesson plans around your field trip to the park.
Here are some ideas:
• Statistics: Calculate the batting averages, earned run averages, and slugging percentages for Fisher Cats players.
• Physics: Discuss kinetic and potential energy and how pitchers make a curveball "curve".
• Arithmetic: Create a budget, and using the prices of concession stand products, calculate how much you spent and received in change.
• Geometry: How many right angles can you find at the ballpark? What shapes make up the playing field?
• History: Discuss how the Fisher Cats got their name. Discuss why "#42" is retired on the right field wall.
