The National Science Bowl is held at the National 4-H Center located just outside of Washington, D.C. Regional winners are invited by DOE to attend the national event. In 2009, 103 teams received an all-expense paid trip to compete for the national title. In addition to the academic competition, students were given the opportunity to attend presentations by well-known scientists on current topics in math and the sciences.
