Join us at the Twin Cities Regional Science Fair! The main judging is on February 26th. The Fair needs "judges to judge both within their expertise and educated judges to judge outside their field of expertise so that the students will have to clearly present their projects to scientists who may not know the jargon of the project." They ask that judges for the complicated high school projects have experience, and this is defined on their website. However, don't let the lack of a science background stop you if you'd like to participate, as there are also middle school projects to judge. It's super fun to chat with students who dissolve teeth in Coke and lemon juice, or grow plants under various colors of light, or experiment with bugs or worms. You also learn stuff!
If you're not in to judging, there are additional volunteer opportunities in registration, data entry, and other areas.
Both parking and a light supper & snacks are provided (catered) for judges and volunteers. Judging will begin at 4pm (many people arrive at 3:30) and go until about 9 pm. Naturally, we'll go out to eat as a group after the judging is over, because we do that.
If you want to do something new, fun, entertaining and enlightening, come along. Go to www.tcrsf.org to sign up and let us know to expect you so we can hook up during the evening.
