The Calgary Youth Science Fair celebrated its 50th anniversary this year with a new location at the University of Calgary's Olympic Oval. The science fair is organized by the Calgary Youth Science Fair Society to encourage and promote ongoing interest in science. Every year approximately 1000 students from schools in and around Calgary compete to take part in Canada's largest regional science fair. The students submitted their work to science fairs at their own schools and were then selected to go to the city-wide event.
