Give back one gallop at a time on Thanksgiving morning!

The Hendricks Regional Health YMCA strives to make a difference in the lives of people in our community every day. The Gobble Gallop 5k is our largest fundraising event for our Annual Campaign. This past year, the donations we received towards our Annual Campaign helped provide over $401,571 in financial assistance to qualifying Westside families. We were able to provide children with the opportunity to attend preschool, take swim lessons, and play in our youth sports leagues. We would never be able to reach that goal without the help of community members like you. Join us this Thanksgiving and help us give back to our Westside community!

Now, Rick Crosslin and Keith Ramsey—decked out in 1825 science attire—recreate that magic, bringing history’s most exciting discoveries to life for today’s families. Expect explosions, brilliant flashes of light, and even a holiday twist with the hilarious song, “The Twelve Days of Science Claus.”
But Science Claus is more than a show—it’s an immersive experience that turns wonder into learning.
Rick Crosslin, Indiana’s beloved science educator, stirs up excitement with high-energy demonstrations like Liquid Nitrogen Fun and the Elephant Toothpaste Volcano, proving that real science can outshine any magic trick.
Keith Ramsey, master chemist and creative showman, adds his expertise with interactive challenges like the Smoke Vortex and Flaming Hands, letting kids see the laws of motion unfold right before their eyes.
This one-hour program is designed for the whole family. Every jaw-dropping demonstration is paired with a chance to discover the science behind the spectacle—turning curiosity into understanding.
Get ready for an unforgettable mix of laughter, learning, and holiday cheer. Whether you’re a lifelong science fan, a holiday enthusiast, or just looking for a dazzling family adventure, Science Claus is the event you won’t want to miss!
