The elementary events are determined by Macomb Science Olympiad. Several were developed right here. The sixteen elementary events usually have an experienced Event Supervisor in place ready to go. Some are looking for co-supervisors.
Planning and preparation goes on (almost) year round. There is a separate planning committee for the elementary and secondary tournaments.
