Info for events
State Specific Infomation
Science Word/ Picture This- the words are almost always easy one so speed is the key in these events
Crimebusters- well run but ALWAYS bring droppers with you; they don't have any even though it says so in the rules
Ex. design- very open ended; nothing really specific when it comes to the experiment
WIDI- no Legos or any other building kits here; styrofoam and pipe cleaners are favorites
Rocks/Fossils- many stations; identification is HEAVILY tested
Food Science- always two or more labs at regionals; states is always a written test
Tech events- relatively easy compared to other states but make sure you're in the first tier: almost half of all things entered are not in this
