The fair will feature science fair projects from students in Grades 6 to 12.

It will be held at Summerland Secondary School on Saturday, April 11.

“We are fortunate to have scientists from the various businesses and research/educational facilities in the area volunteer their time and judge our students,” said Shona Becker, chair of the regional science fair.

The top projects from the regional science fair will go on to represent the region at the Canada Wide Science Fair in Fredericton, N.B., May 10 to 17.

“We’ve had some very strong projects move on to the national fair over the years and be very successful,” Becker said. “I’m excited to see this year’s batch of projects.”

The public is invited to view the projects and meet with the students from 2:30 to 3:30 p.m.

The awards ceremony will be held at Centre Stage Theatre beginning at 3:45 p.m.
