SISTERS SCIENCE CLUB FUNDRAISER

April 27, 2025

The Sisters Science Club will hold a Fundraiser for Science Education on Sunday, April 27th from 2-5 pm at FivePine Lodge & Conference Center, 1021 E Desperado Trail, Sisters.

Join the Sisters Science Club to learn about existing science programming in SSD, support the growth of science programming and connect with other science lovers in town!  Hear from the science teachers and students who benefit from extracurricular science-based activities and learn how your donation to the Sisters Science Club ensures the ongoing success of these programs.

Funds will be raised for science-related education for all three schools in the Sisters School District focusing on field trips, teacher enrichment and equipment.

Teachers in the district have presented field trip proposals to the LIGO Hanford Observatory, Fred Hutchison Cancer Center in Seattle and Bend Science Station that would be made possible by these additional funds.  Teachers have also requested funds to attend Science teacher conferences and purchase updated classroom equipment, as these expenses have recently taken a back seat due to the District’s funding freeze.

“The Science Club raises funds for science activities that are not covered by other grants or the District to enhance science curricula in the schools. The schools have an infusion of funds through the arts, music and sports….we want science to have an equal part,” stated David Duehren, Board President.

The Sisters Science Club has provided seed money to projects such as Seed to Table, the Aviation Program, Greenhouse and the Fred Hutch field trips.  Board Member and STEAM Teacher, Jocelyn Blevins, pointed out that “Science teachers representing each of the schools are excited to collaborate with the Sisters Science Club in determining how monies are allocated and spent.”

The Sisters Science club is a 501(c)3, tax exempt organization and donations are tax deductible to the extent permitted by law.   Hors d’oeuvres & drinks provided.  Reservations through Eventbrite at www.sistersscienceclub.org  For those unable to attend, donations may be made through the SSC website.
