Fair Enough

Well, the regional science fair is over. So, the results came out like this: First, we won by default in our category (there were no other team projects in Medicine/health), then we won an award from Utah's Health Review, which is the annual periodical published by IHC for the Utah State Legislature, which included free publishing of our abstract, names, and photo, as well as a $100 prize, a plaque, research-shadowing at an IHC or U of U lab of our choice, and a free stethoscope. So, that was all wonderful. Lastly, we won Grand Prize / Best of Fair in Teams, so we are going on to the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair. That will be held in Phoenix, Arizona from May 8-15, and Melissa (my partner), our mentor Mr. Tuttle, and myself are going for free. All expenses are being paid by the state. So that is my excitement for the next year or two.
