Science Bowl is a DOE program to encourage and reward high-school students to become proficient in math and science to meet our country's needs in the decades ahead. This year we are desperately in need of volunteers to help with the competition, particularly before noon, on Saturday, March 4, at Glendale Community College. It's a lot of fun, and a lite breakfast and lunch are provided. Here are the jobs we are talking about: - Score Keeper: Adding 4 or 10 to a score to derive the next team score. No problem. - Time Keeper: Using a big round clock or a laptop. Basically like setting an alarm clock. - Rules Judge: For those who have helped before, since the students know the rules very well. - Moderator: Reading the questions which involves chemical formulas and the pronouncing of scientific terms. The competition aspects are learned quickly. We open registration (& lite breakfast) at 7AM and begin working by 7:30. The most help is needed up until lunch with eight competitions going on at the same time. Fewer occur after lunch, but it is also a chance to watch the future engineers and scientists do their best during the finals. The website is . Should you desire, training sessions are available at the WAPA facility (43rd Ave & Buckeye) prior to the event. Please contact me at , 602.243.6136 or the Coordinator, Dennis Schaefer at , 602.605.2521. Hope you can participate. Somebody did something similar for me so many years ago and it made so much of a difference for me.
