It's a 50/50 Raffle!
Each year, the Rockville Science Center proudly brings our community together for one amazing afternoon of all things STEM at Rockville Science Day. Please help support our work for Science Day and throughout the year by purchasing one or more raffle tickets for the chance to win 50% of the money collected in the raffle. RSC's portion of the proceeds will be used to support need-based scholarships, as well as the programming we offer year-round to children, teens, and adults in our community. Thank you for your support and good luck!

Need to know:
What is a 50/50 raffle? A 50/50 raffle splits the proceeds in half so that the organization running the raffle gets 50% of the raffle proceeds and one lucky winner randomly selected gets the other 50%.
How much does a ticket cost? Tickets are $5 each or purchase a bundle to increase your chances and save on the ticket price. A Bonus Bundle of 5 tickets costs $20 and gives you 1 free ticket. A Super Bonus Bundle of 10 tickets costs $35 and gives you 3 free tickets!
Can I pay cash for a ticket at Science Day or the storefront? No, since this is an online raffle, participation does require the use of a credit card on the raffle webpage.
Who can participate? You must be 18 or older to participate. Staff and Trustees of the Rockville Science Center (and their immediate family members) are not eligible to participate.
When does the raffle end? Ticket sales will run until 4:00 PM on Sunday, April 27 (Rockville Science Day). We will announce the winner during the rocket launch on the athletic field at Montgomery College (Rockville).
What if I can't make it to Rockville Science Day? No worries. Since this is an online raffle, the winner need not be present to collect their prize. We will have your contact information on your ticket and will contact you to let you know that you are the lucky winner!
Bring the whole family for an afternoon of hands-on learning and fun.
Last year's event featured 100 exhibitors from all areas of STEM including Environmental Science, Nature, Space & Astronomy, Reptiles & Birds, Biology, Chemistry, Medicine, Physics, Robotics, Rockets, Amateur Radio, and more!
Volunteer Registration
Volunteers (ages 16 and older) are needed to help with setup on Saturday, April 26 (6:00 - 9:00 PM) and on the day of the event (Sunday, April 27) starting at 9:30 AM.

Our Programs
"We live in a society exquisitely dependent on science and technology,
in which hardly anyone knows anything about science and technology."
— Carl Sagan
The Rockville Science Center is committed to helping curious minds of all ages explore the world of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math). We love having fun doing science, but we also take seriously the responsibility of helping to develop the next generation of scientists. Through our science programs for all ages and our interactive science center, we work to cultivate a sense of inquiry, discovery, wonder and understanding of the scientific foundations of everyday life.
