The Science Fair Foundation BC, in conjunction with regional science fair organizers, announced the finalists who participated in their joint BC/Yukon Virtual Science Fair for students in grade 4 to 12 in a virtual event on April 14. 

More than 280 students registered of whom almost 70 per cent were new participants to the science fair program.  Throughout the course of the fair and judging process, over 700 zoom connections were facilitated. 

After 20 years of setting the pace in the knowledge race as the Science Fair Fun Run, the Science Fair Foundation of BC has rebranded their major fundraiser as Sweatin’ for Science - a virtual race around BC and Yukon. 

We uncover the passion behind great ideas, meet STEAM thought leaders and talk with young people working on inspiring innovations! 

Join us at 11:00am (PDT) on June 17, 2020 via Facebook Live, to help cheer on BC's science fair students, hear from guest speakers and see a special Science Show! Awards and prizes for the BC Virtual Science Fair will be announced at this inaugural event.
