This year's event was made possible through the dedication of countless volunteers, community sponsors, and local businesses that came together to promote STEM education in the region.
"Today's event not only showcases Quinte area students' hard work but also helps to foster a wider appreciation for science within our community," said Scott Berry, Co-chair of the QRSTF. "The enthusiasm we've seen from these young minds is contagious, and I have no doubt that many will go on to make significant contributions to the world of science."
Congratulations and good luck to those competing in Fredericton, New Brunswick this spring.
