Family Science Olympics -

Science and Technology Week

National Science and Technology week is a Canada-wide celebration of Science and Technology. Praxis takes this time of the year to encourage the people of Medicine Hat and surrounding areas to become involved with science; to celebrate the wonder and excitement of science. As part of our promotion of this week we hold the annual Family Science Olympics. Our first Olympics was held in 1993.

The Family Science Olympics is designed as a fun-filled day that will please, intrigue and inspire “scientists” of all ages.  There are be 10 “hands-on” participation events.  Each event will have a prize draw that a family can enter when they have finished the activity.  Families that complete at least 8 events and get an opportunity to enter the grand prize (to be announced).  There is no charge for families to participate in this popular community event, the Praxis Family Science Olympics.  All activities can be completed by people of all ages but each “family” must have at least one person over the age of 18 to participate. 

To take part in next year's event please contact Praxis!
