Mary,

We do a MagLev contest for middle school students.  Our website explains it:   (http://www.bnl.gov/education/contests/magLev/default.asp).  This contest builds on Brookhaven's National Lab's history with Magnetic Levitation:   
(http://www.bnl.gov/bnlweb/pubaf/pr/PR_display.asp?prID=08) and 
(http://www.bnl.gov/bnlweb/pubaf/pr/2000/bnlpr041800.html).

Call if you would like more information.

Last year, we held our first science fair for home school students.  We
kept it very simple and it was a great success.  We had 24 participants.

Call if you need more information.

Hello,
I know the Tech Museum in San Jose, CA, hosts an annual Tech Challenge
that
area students can compete in.  I am interested if there are other
science
centers out there who do something similar, especially smaller science
centers.  If so, I am curious how you got started, any advice,
pros/cons,
etc.

Thanks,
