2 0 T H A N N I V E R S A R YScience Fair Fun Run

The Science Fair Foundation of British Columbia is pleased to announce that our STEMCELL Science Fair Fun Run 20th Anniversary will be held on May 26th, 2019 at Athletes Village Plaza in Vancouver,

BC. We invite you to join us as we continue to Set the Pace in the Knowledge Race!

Supporting young scientists across the province, the Fun Run is the largest timed 5K race in BC and one of the largest events in BC's technology industry. Your participation in the annual STEMCELL Science Fair Fun Run ensures the success of future Science Fairs in BC and allows our youth to gain the skills they need to succeed in a fast-paced, knowl-edge-based world. This event features Team BC's award-winning Science Fair projects, giveaways, and prizes! All proceeds from the event will go to The Dr. Michael Smith Science Fair Endowment to support the promotion and development of Science Fair Programs throughout the province.

‘Reveal Your Potential” is an encouragement and challenge we hope to instill in our students. We extend this challenge to our sponsors and participants. Get involved and be part of building the foundation of success for the youth of BC in science and technology.

“Science Fairs sparked my interest in the health sciences and helped me develop interests and skills that remain critical to my work - a love for inquiry and teaching, an appreciation of multidisciplinary teamwork, and humility in the face of the unknown.” - Clara Westell-Roper, MD PhD, PGY1, Psychiatry Research Track, UBC
