Thomas Cup Challege registration open to high school, home-schooled students

WATERVILLE — Registration is open for Thomas College’s annual Thomas Cup competition, which will be held Saturday, Dec. 7, at Thomas College, a one-day event this year rather than two days which it had been in previous years.
Open to both high school and home-schooled students, the Thomas Cup offers a free-to-attend day of challenge, learning, fun and excitement to 32 teams of five Maine students. After receiving instruction from Thomas College faculty, teams compete throughout the day across five STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, the Arts, and Mathematics) events covering topics including: cybersecurity, crime scene investigation, robotics, innovation, and strategy.
Thomas Cup, historically an overnight event, will instead take place from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. – ending with an awards ceremony and a presentation to the winning team of a two-foot trophy, the Thomas Cup.
Team registration can be completed online at thomas.edu/thomas-cup.
