NWO Fair Schedule 2020
Our 57th annual science fair is on Tuesday April 21st, 2020 at the "Hangar" at Lakehead University
In 2020 we will be holding our 2nd "digital fair" for out-of-town students the day before the in-person main fair. If your school has students interested in attending the Northwestern Ontario Regional Science Fair, but they are unable to travel for reasons of cost or distance, please contact us via email at nworsf@gmail.com to see if they qualify to participate in this pilot.
The fair will be held in "the Hangar" at Lakehead University. Please tell the front desk that you are there for the fair to gain access. Parking is available around the Hanger.
