Renewable energy fair April 14

CAZENOVIA » Area students in grades K-12 are invited to enter science projects that showcase renewable energy technologies at Seize the Power: Cazenovia Renewable Energy Fair on Saturday, April 14 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Cazenovia College.

The youth science fair will bring together local residents, students, business owners, and industry experts for a hands-on afternoon of learning about the community’s renewable energy future.

The fair will present students’ ideas about the future of renewable energy science and may include projects that address climate change or recycling. Prizes will be awarded in the following age categories: preschool-kindergarten, grades 1-3, grades 4-6, grades 7-9, and grades 1012. Students interested in creating a project for the fair should contact Elizabeth Crofut at Cazrenew@ gmail.com by March 31 for an information packet.

“We hope that participation in our Youth Science Fair will inspire our youth to advocate for renewable energy now and in the future,” Crofut said.

Attendees will be able to learn how to get started using renewable energy and about renewable energy technologies that can be installed in homes or businesses. Local vendors and agencies that focus on renewable energies will have representatives available to answer questions and provide information. Visitors to the fair will also learn about and see cutting-edge research that will drive technologies for years to come.
