NORTH ADAMS – The planning committee for the annual Region 1 Science and Engineering Fair, to take place on Friday, March 14, at Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts (MCLA), is looking for individuals to judge science projects created by high school students from Berkshire, Franklin, Hampden and Hampshire counties.

This event is organized by a committee of business representatives, teachers and community members who work to advance science. The committee invites area residents with a degree or work experience in behavioral and social science, biochemistry, botany, chemistry, computer science, earth and space science, engineering, environmental science, mathematics, medicine, microbiology, physics and zoology to judge students’ entries in the Science and Engineering Fair.

The Fair provides students the opportunity to explore and share an aspect of science with peers from surrounding communities. Top science students compete on four levels for the honor to compete in the State and International Science and Engineering fairs.

Those interested in serving as a judge should contact Sharron Zavattaro at (413) 662-5332 or szavattaro@mcla.edu, or Denise Johns at (413) 236-2125 or djohns@berkshirecc.edu, for further information.
