Sponsorship of the Florida
Science Olympiad

Would you like to be part of a dynamic
science competition that attracts the best science students across the nation?
Then help sponsor the Florida Science Olympiad!
In March of each year, students from across the state converge on Orlando to
compete in this exciting science competition. Students compete in a variety of
individual events which include bridge building, bottle rocket launches, egg
drops, and model airplane flights. The types of events span the spectrum of
science and include ecology, biology, chemistry, physics, and engineering. This
year, Florida Science Olympiad will host nearly 80 schools, comprised of teams
of 15 students in both middle and high school divisions. One from each division
will represent Florida at the National Science Olympiad.
There are two ways that you can help. The first way is to become the sponsor
of an individual event. For a list of the events click here.
The cost of sponsorship is only $250.00 per event and your company or
organization will be placed on a flyer that each student, teacher and
accompanying parent will receive. In addition, you will be placed on our web
site for one year. If you have a banner, we would also be happy to display it
during the Florida Science Olympiad competition.
The second way to help is to become a scholarship donor. In each of our 23
high school events, we award medals to our top three places. However, we lack
the funds to provide scholarships to the first place students.
As a scholarship
donor, you can help provide these scholarships. Simply pick the event for which
you would like to provide a scholarship, decide on the amount, notify Florida
Science Olympiad, and send a representative to the Florida Science Olympiad on
March 8th to present the check to the winners of the event. Most
events have at least two first place medal winners, with the exception of
Mission Possible, which can have up to four medal winners. Therefore, the number
of scholarships in each event should be commensurate with the number of
participants in the event. If you choose to be a scholarship donor, you will be
listed on the same flyers described above and you will also be placed on our web
site.
If you would like to help in other ways, or have any additional questions,
please feel free to e-mail the director, Mike McKee at
mmckee@creol.ucf.edu .
