ROCKY MOUNTAIN CHAPTER CHAPTER - Aug 17, 2010 |
Science Fair Winner Recognized |
In August, the chapter recognized Ethan Hahn, the Grand Prize winner of the AFCEA National High School Science Fair and the 2010 Rocky Mountain Chapter Science Fair. Hahn graduated from The Classical Academy (TCA) charter school in Colorado Springs this year. He received a $3,000 check from Col. Michael Curry, USA, chapter president, and Ares Koumis, Science Fair Committee chairman. AFCEA International also recognized Hahn at LandWarNet 2010 for building a working nuclear reactor experiment and demonstrating the reactor's many capabilities. Hahn plans to attend Emery Riddle University as a Naval ROTC cadet. His goal is to become an aerospace engineer and ultimately an astronaut. The chapter recognized Hahn, along with his parents, high school teachers and TCA. Dr. David Bohn, president of TCA; four of Hahn's TCA science and physics teachers; and five members of the AFCEA Executive Board were in attendance. |
