Interested in Serving on a DMRSEF Committee? 

 

The Denver Metro Regional Science and Engineering Fair is made possible by the passion and dedication of our community. Each year, volunteers from across the region step up to share their expertise, creativity, and support through our three committees: 

  • Operating Committee – Help with the hands-on planning and logistics that keep the fair running smoothly, from scheduling to event support.
  • Community Advisory Council – Bring fresh perspectives as a parent, teacher, alum, or partner to help us expand outreach and build a more diverse, inclusive fair community.
  • Student Advisory Council – Share your experiences as a DMRSEF alum to mentor peers, shape resources, and ensure all students have a voice at the table.

By joining a committee, you’ll be a thought partner in shaping the future of the fair and an on-the-ground supporter who helps bring this incredible event to life. Whether it’s guiding logistics, expanding outreach, strengthening community connections, or amplifying student voices, we rely on volunteers like you!

If you’re passionate about STEM education and want to make a direct impact through DMRSEF, we’d love to have you join us!
