The Twin Cities Regional Science Fairs (TCRSF) exists solely for the betterment of youth grades 6-12 in the Twin Cities area. Our mission is to promote hands on science learning activities and provide interaction with professionals, discussion of project goals, presentation of ideas, and project analysis for all youth in the Twin Cities area. We strongly support under-represented groups with financial assistance, mentor involvement, and project guidance. We strive to motivate, encourage, and support all efforts by a philosophy of, "Everyone who tries is a winner." Partnerships in Education Programs: We served approximately 500 students from the Twin Cities who competed with science project displays and science research papers. We send at least 25% of our student competitors to advanced competitions at the state, national, and international levels. Doing a science project teaches and exercises cross disciplinary skills in reading, writing formal research papers, art & graphic design, math, statistics, computer science, critical thinking, logic, ethics, scientific methodology, research skills, the power of self discovery, general project planning skills, and public speaking including presentation of results to professional scientists. Doing a science project results in students who are practiced, skilled, self confident, and competent young leaders who have career goals and the preparation, discipline, and drive to attain them. Awards list is available on our website. 0 0 0 Michael Lohman Sr Board Member & Public Relations 1 0 0 0 Gary Kwong Treasurer 3 0 0 0 Karin Ostrand Board Member & Scientific Review Committee Chair 10.00 0 0 0 David Underbakke Board Member & Database & Webmaster & Judging chair 14.00 0 0 0 Timara Underbakke Director, Webmaster, Databases, Awards & Board Member 24 0 0 0 Karilyn Jons Board Member & Development Director 5 0 0 0 Steven Jons Board Member & Science Education Outreach 3 0 0 0 Caroline Ylitalo Board Member and Awards 4 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 MN Gary Kwong 1700 Fry St Falcon Heights MN 55113 6124622628 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 NONE NONE 1 X 65182 57582 66385 72275 63207 324631 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 65182 57582 66385 72275 63207 324631 324631 309 90 49 907 1668 3023 0 0 0 0 0 0 14020 8620 9675 9604 11835 53754 381408 0 0.85114 0.84816 X Schedule A, Part II, Line 10 Registrations RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 16 ISEF Awards = $48,583.34; General Awards = $1,708.55; Volunteer work meetings & board meetings = $1,614.12; Bank and check charges = $159.70; Outreach Science Clubs = $9,000.00
