Hello GGSO community,
Golden Gate Science Olympiad will be hosting its 9th annual invitational at UC Berkeley on Saturday, February 22nd, 2025 and we are in need of volunteers!
GGSO, directed entirely by Stanford and Berkeley students, is the West Coast’s premier Science Olympiad invitational and will be hosting nearly 1000 high school students from 60 teams across the country. For those unfamiliar with Science Olympiad, it functions like an academic track meet with 23 different events in all areas of science and engineering, including topics such as astronomy, Earth science, and cryptography. Science Olympiad is the nation’s largest team-based science competition for middle and high school students!
Generally, volunteers assist with grading exams, setting up, monitoring students, and other day-of activities. All volunteers will receive a free GGSO t-shirt, guaranteed transportation to and from Berkeley campus on tournament day (for Stanford students), all-you-can-eat snacks (while supplies last), and free lunch.
No prior Science Olympiad knowledge is required, so sign up here by January 15th, 2025! If you are somebody interested in advancing science education, need volunteer hours, or are just excited to get involved with a fun science competition, we’d love to have you on board.
