Support the STEM Fair

The Rochester Regional STEM Fair connects students with knowledgeable and supportive adults year round. More than one hundred mentors, judges, chaperones, and safety reviewers come together each year to inspire students and share their love of science. Thank you for supporting the STEM Fair!
