The festival engages over 300 professional scientists and experts who provide interactive displays and short workshops that introduce 4<sup>th</sup>- 8<sup>th</sup> graders to principles of math, science and engineering in a fun and memorable way. More than 6000 students and science teachers from Southern Arizona are expected to attend<b>. Since the event will focus on plant sciences this year, we would like the School of Plant Sciences to be well represented.</b> Several faculty have already committed but we hope to have a 3-5 more from our School sign up. Once we get your responses we will hold an organizational meeting the week of Jan. 9, 2012 to discuss and coordinate the proposed activities.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='text-autospace:none'><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='text-autospace:none'>Let me know if you are interested!<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='text-autospace:none'>For more information, see the attached flyer. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='text-autospace:none'><span style='font-size:12.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Franklin Gothic Book","sans-serif";color:#77933C;mso-style-textfill-fill-color:#77933C;mso-style-textfill-fill-alpha:100.0%'>Tanya M.
