Fair Week

After months of hard work and planning, the final countdown has begun to the 2024 Synopsys Championship.

This winter continues to see heavy activity for COVID, cold, flu, RSV & other respiratory illnesses, with that said, our top priority is to protect your health and safety during our event. We encourage all attendees to get your flu shot, make sure your COVID vaccines and booster shots are up-to-date, self-test regularly, and if you show symptoms such as cold, cough or fever please stay home. Please notify us by email to fairmanager@science-fair.org if you must cancel at the last minute.  Unfortunately, we are not able to offer judging online for this fair.

Based on the current situation, we will adhere to the following health and safety measures during the Synopsys Championship. We recommend all attendees wear a mask but it is not required.

We will continue to evaluate developments and provide updates as needed, including any new guidance from federal, state, or local health authorities. We will also comply with any County or City requirements as of the date of the fair. We wish you all a great learning experience at the Synopsys Championship. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact us at fairmanager@science-fair.org.
