National Ocean Sciences Bowl
scientists and students exploring and
developing strategies for managing oceans resources

Volunteers

Mark your calendars now -- the next Colorado Ocean Sciences Bowl will be on Saturday, March 6, 2010. The competition will be at the University Memorial Center (UMC) at the University of Colorado (Boulder).

The Ocean Sciences Bowl is an exciting, high-energy "quiz bowl" competition for high school students. Every year, we rely on our wonderful crew of volunteers to make the event possible! We need the largest number of volunteers for the morning round-robin competition, but those who can stay all day get to work during the dynamic double-elimination final rounds in the afternoon. All volunteers are welcome to join us for a complimentary buffet lunch.

Volunteer check-in will be at 8:30am. Lunch will be around 1:00pm. We will not be supplying breakfast.

No ocean science experience is necessary to volunteer for this fun event! We have several different volunteer tasks you may choose from, including scorekeeping, timekeeping, moderating, and rules/science judging. We also need help with registration and running messages to the competition rooms. There will be training sessions in late January and early February for all volunteer roles.

Please contact Tina if you have any questions or would like to volunteer for 2010; we will be sending out information on training sessions and other details as soon as they become available.
