Reviving Young Scientists: Orcas Science Fair Celebrates 20th Anniversary

The Funhouse Science Fair Returns

On Saturday, April 27th, from 12-4 p.m., we invite you to join us at the Funhouse Commons for our 20th Science Fair. This exciting event first began in 2001 with the goal of celebrating and inspiring the amazing discoveries made by young scientific minds. After a hiatus of four years, we are thrilled to announce the return of this beloved tradition, now revitalized and ready to bring excitement back to our community.

All Orcas K-12 students are encouraged to register their projects, and we also invite community members who have an interest in conservation and environmental science to participate. If you would like to be a vendor or volunteer at the science fair, please contact Ryan@thefunhouse.org. Our Science Fair, themed around Earth Day, will feature free food and beverages, live music, community exhibits, and most importantly, the impressive creations of our young participants.

Each participant will receive an award, with top prizes being selected by our esteemed wandering wizards in elementary, middle school categories. The prestigious Richie Moore “Rocket Ship of Wonder” will be awarded to the top three best-in-show science projects. Prizes include $500 for 1st place in high school category; $250 for 1st place in middle school; and $100 for 1st place in elementary school.

We need your support to make this extraordinary event happen! We are looking for volunteers who can assist with setup activities and cleanup work on Saturday during the science fair. Your tax-deductible donation towards covering costs such as food beverages awards prizes supplies is greatly appreciated essential to the success of this event
