Because Cedar Point Amusement Park has cancelled their Physics, Math, & Science Week due to COVID-19 precautions, there will not be an awards ceremony this spring. NOAA Marine Debris, Ohio Sea Grant and congressional partners are working on potential alternatives to recognize the students.

This contest is a partnership between NOAA Marine Debris, Ohio Sea Grant, The Ohio State University’s Stone Laboratory, Ohio Congressional District 9 and Congresswoman Marcy Kaptur, and Cedar Point Amusement Park.
