SCUP raised $685 from check and cash donations at the fair! That is over 10% of what is needed to run the fair, so we have a head start for next year. We sold out of the collectible science fair buttons.
2012 Science Fair

The 300 students were excited to discuss their projects with the 50 scientists and community members who volunteered to judge the projects. Another 50 volunteers helped to support the operation. The day concluded with students getting to show off their projects to the community and getting awarded certificates and ribbons. You can view video from the 2012 Science Fair below.
