- “I just wanted to tell Austin Energy that as in past years, the science fair event was great. I do not know how you handle it. Ingrid Weigand (Manager, Marketing Communications) has super special powers.” Avraham Be'er, PhD, Center for Nonlinear Dynamics, University of Texas at Austin
- “This was our first year to take students to your regional festival. I just wanted to let you know that it was a very organized and well run event. I felt like I knew everything to expect and that my kids were also prepared. I just wanted to say Thanks for all the hard work you and all the staff put in, because it made everything run smoothly. Thanks again and we look forward to next year!” Courtney Stearns, Del Valle Elementary Science Coach
- “Thank you so much for all the hard work and long hours Austin Energy invested in coordinating the science fest. It was such a wonderful experience for my daughter and the thousands of other children who participated. I just wanted you to know how much we appreciate adults taking the time to be involved in the lives of kids, especially to motivate them to take interest in science and technology. With the looming budget cuts in education, we will need more community and volunteer efforts to keep our schools healthy and able to offer the education our children will need to be leaders in the 21st century. Thank you! Tina Tsuei, Austin.
- “I want to compliment Russell Cowen (Education Coordinator) and the Austin Energy staff on the science festival on many levels. First and foremost, the courtesy the staff showed to the volunteers. Each person I spoke to expressed gratitude for the volunteers being there. That was really nice to feel. This was not an easy event to run and it was exceptionally well run. Kudos to you and your team. Thank you for making this experience a pleasure for everyone.” Danielle Cowan, Round Rock ISD.
