The Senior Bluewater Regional Science and Technology Fair would not be possible without the assistance of many volunteer judges and sponsors. The committee extends thanks to all CWSF Team sponsors.
This year’s national fair will be taking place from May 25 to June 1 at Carleton University in Ottawa. Over 400 students from across Canada will be completing for almost $1 million worth of awards and scholarships, including trips to international competitions and the coveted title of being Canada’s Top Young Scientist.
