APEGGA Science Olympics –
Calgary Work Group is Now Recruiting

The APEGGA science olympics Work Group is looking for new members to help plan the science olympics in Calgary. Science olympics is an interactive science competition and an interschool event. Students are given a series of applications or problem-solving challenges that demonstrate the fun side of exploring science concepts targeted for Grades 1 through 12.

APEGGA hosts the science olympics as an activity to celebrate National Engineering & Geoscience Week. By bringing attention to its professions through a variety of programs and activities, we hope to encourage and nurture an interest in engineering, science, math and technology in students and the general public.

The work group meets once per month excluding July, August, and December. The meetings are generally two hours long and are at the APEGGA office. The science olympics will be held on February 23, 2007.

For more information or to volunteer, please contact Nanica Brown at nbrown@apegga.org or 262-7714.
