Alberta Science and Technology Week recognizes and embraces the achievements of Alberta’s science and technology communities, and promotes the role that science and technology play in contributing to the quality of life we enjoy in Alberta. Individuals and organizations across the province hold science and technology-related activities throughout the week. APEGGA is an official sponsor of Alberta’s 2007 Science and Technology Week.
Bring your found rocks and fossils to the APEGGA Rock & Fossil Clinic, in celebration of Science and Technology Week. Professional geologists will be on hand to identify rocks and fossils brought in by the public. There will also be fun hands-on science activities for the entire family.
