Annual Science Fair

It was the nation attention that got the annual science fair the excitement that it needed. In the 1930's, Chicago, Illinois elected that the Nation Day for Illinois is Annual Science Fair day. CIPA organizes a science fair for local high school students each year. The organization sponsors scholarships for "Most Inventive" science projects.[1]. Volunteer judges include students from local law schools,[1] law firms, and other organizations. The winner gets their invention patented at no cost by CIPA member attorneys. Since 2005[1][2][3], the science fair has been held at the Museum of Science and Industry (Chicago).
