Be a Part of Deschutes County 4-H’s 3rd Annual
No Rules Science Fair
No rules means, we are not going to restrict your topic or medium. The guideline for 4-H is if you are interested in it and we
can ﬁnd a volunteer willing to help you learn more, it can be a project area
—so we are going to apply this same philosophy to our science fair.
All you have to do is put
your project into one of
these three areas:
⇒
On Land
⇒
Above Land
⇒
Water
Determine what age bracket you should be placed in:
⇒
9-11 years old (JUNIOR)
⇒
12-14 years old (INTERMEDIATE)
⇒
15-19 years old (SENIOR)
⇒
K-8 years (CLOVERBUDS)

All youth who reside in Oregon are welcome to par:cipate!

Whatever you submit, must somehow show or explain how “Science Inquiry” was used AND it must be a

guidelines:
⇒ Make observa:ons
⇒ Ask ques:ons that can be answered through a scien:ﬁc inves:ga:on.
