We would like to invite you to compete in the annual Eco-Meet, a science competition for middle schoolers hosted by CSRA - Environmental Science Education Cooperative that is coming up on November 6th, 2026. This years' competition is at the Georgia-Carolina Council of Scouting America and Nature and Adventure Center at 4316 3 J Dr, Evans, GA 30809
Registration is open until at this link: https://www.csraesec.org/eco-meet . There are a limited number of spaces available to compete, so sign up quickly.
The McDuffie Environmental Education Center with Georgia DNR (MEEC) is a proud member of the CSRA Environmental Science Education Cooperative (ESEC) and works with this group each year to put on Eco-Meet for students in 6th to 8th grades. Schools may enter 2 teams of 3-4 students each and each team needs an adult to act as a coach. Coaches can be as involved with preparing their team as they would like, but at minimum need to be there as the supervisor of the team the day of the event. Registration is open now and the cost is $45 per team.
The competition consists of six different testing stations hosted by different member organizations of ESEC. Each station has a study packet and sample questions available online for teams to utilize before the competition. At the end of the competition day, 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place winners of each testing station, along with the 1st place overall winners, will receive medals. Additionally, plaques will be given out to hang in your school for the first place overall winners and the coach of the year.
