Earth Day Science Fair: Join Us for a Weekend of Discovery and Fun!

Come and join us at the Funhouse Commons on Saturday, April 27th from 12-4 p.m., as we celebrate our 20th Science Fair! This exciting event started in 2001 with the goal of inspiring young scientific minds and celebrating their amazing discoveries. After a four-year break, we are thrilled to announce the return of this beloved tradition, rejuvenated and ready to bring excitement back to our community.

We welcome all Orcas K-12 students to register their projects, and extend a friendly invitation to community members interested in presenting their work in conservation and environmental science. If you’re interested in being a vendor or volunteering at the science fair, please contact Ryan@thefunhouse.org. Our Science Fair, with an Earth Day theme, will offer free food and drinks, live music, community displays, and of course, the fantastic projects from our young participants.

Every participant will receive an award, with the top three prizes in elementary, middle 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
