Well, another Science Fair is coming up and we hope that you will assist us as a judge at Beltsville Elementary School in the gymnasium again this year. And no, you do not need a science background in order to serve as a judge. Any adult can do it.

The dates this year are Monday, December 1 and Tuesday, December 2. On December 1 we would need judges from 11:30 to 2:00, and lunch will be provided. On December 2 we would need judges from 8:00 am until 12:00 noon, and breakfast and lunch will be provided.

Last year we also introduced a new opportunity to help the students with their Science Fair projects and we will continue that again this year. Help Nights were held in October and November to assist those students who are doing a project for the first time or who have questions about what's involved or how to make their project better.

So, if you're interested in helping the students by volunteering your time in December 1 or 2, please email me at epulik@aarp.org, or call 202-434-2256 during the day to let me know which day or days you will be available.

THE KIDS NEED YOU!

Thanks.
