Judges & Volunteers

 

 

No matter your expertise or experience, there is a perfect role for you at this year's fair!

 

Judge Registration is NOW OPEN for the 2025 DMRSEF! 

Judges are one of the most important pieces of the CoorsTek Denver Metro Regional Science and Engineering Fair! Members of our community who are high school graduates or above are encouraged to volunteer. Judges are expected to commit a full day to the fair (10:00 am - 5:00 pm), which involves viewing projects, interviewing students, and working with fellow judges to select our fair winners.

Volunteers Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):

We have many different shifts that range from one to six hours over four days, feel free to pick however many shifts you would like.

Some roles would absolutely accommodate kids, but please contact us ahead of time so that we can coordinate the role that would be best suited for smaller volunteers. If your kids are older (middle or high school) please have them sign up to volunteer. Please note, only those with a designated role will be provided lunch and a shirt.

Absolutely! Email your volunteer form to kayla.ahr@ucdenver.edu or list Kayla Ahr, DMRSEF Director, as your contact.
