This is a nice opportunity to see the type of work our local students are doing. It's also a great chance to take your young scientist to see some examples of science fair work.

I called GEHC this morning and they confirmed that there is no admission charge to see the science fair exhibits. If you haven't been to the center before, they have some nice exhibits on Gwinnett County and water usage. Regular admission to the center for Gwinnett County residents is $3 for children 3-12, $5 for students 13-22 with student ID, $7 for adults. Admission for non-residents is $6 (age 3-12), $8 (students age 13-22), and $10 (adults).
