A New Beginning for the Funhouse Commons Science Fair: Inspiring Young Minds and Celebrating Scientific Excellence on April 27th

The Funhouse Commons is excited to host its 20th Science Fair on Saturday, April 27th from 12-4 p.m. This event, which began in 2001 with the goal of inspiring young scientific minds, has been on hiatus for four years but is now back and ready to bring excitement back to the community.

All Orcas K-12 students are welcome to register their projects, and community members interested in presenting their work in conservation and environmental science are also encouraged to participate. If you’re interested in being a vendor or volunteering at the science fair, please contact Ryan@thefunhouse.org.

The Science Fair will have an Earth Day theme and will offer free food and drinks, live music, community displays, and amazing projects from young participants. Every participant will receive an award, with the top three prizes in elementary, middle, and high school categories chosen by our esteemed wandering wizards. The prestigious Richie Moore “Rocket Ship of Wonder” will be awarded to the top three best-in-show science projects. The breakdown of prizes is as follows: High School: 1st place $500, 2nd place $350, 3rd place $250. Middle School: 1st place $250, 2nd place $150, 3rd place $100. Elementary: 1st place $100, 2nd place $75, 3rd place $50.

We need your help to make this event a success! We’re looking for community support to raise $5,000 to cover the costs of food, drinks
