Advisory Council
The Colorado State Science Fair, Inc. Advisory Council is comprised of all Board of Directors members, the Regional Fair Directors and their assistants, and many other dedicated individuals who have volunteered to be an integral part of the Colorado Science and Engineering Fair each year.
