Free!

The KidWind Challeng is a hands-on wind turbine design competition that engages 4-12th grade students in STEM. Student teams bring small-scale wind turbines that they’ve designed to the Challenge where they will be tested in a wind tunnel. Top performing teams will have the chance to compete at the World KidWind Challenge in May.
Who can participate?
Any group of students in grades 4 to 12 is eligible to enter a team. This includes students from public and private schools, home schoolers, after school clubs, 4-H clubs, etc. Every team needs a coach who is responsible for registering and managing the team. Teams of 2-6 students seem to work best, although teams from 1-8 are welcome.
