ESO Event Map
Please see the map of Kennesaw State campus below. You'll see each of the buildings we are using along with the events taking place. Teams will set up their home base around the campus green. Each team is encouraged to bring pop up tents, folding chairs, coolers, food and any other materials you may need.
PRE-Order Lunch Options Lunch options on KSU's campus are limited on the day of the ESO. Teams should plan to pack lunches or pre-order. It is not easy to leave campus and get food, but not impossible. | Lodging There are multiple hotels near KSU. Here are a few that we have used in the past. You'll need to contact the hotel directly for reservations.

The Georgia ESO will abide by the same spirit and guidelines outlined here. Teams will be asked to have students sign student & parent pledge agreement. Coaches/parent volunteers ONLY complete KSU Minors Code of Conduct-Staff and Volunteer.pdf. Coaches will keep all copies of these documents. These are the only waivers/permission forms that need to be signed. Our Elementary Science Olympiad is staffed by a small army of volunteers who are donating their time and expertise to provide this valuable learning opportunity to your students. Failure of students, parents and coaches to follow the expectations established in the Code of Conduct and ESO Pledge may result in disqualification. |
Ideas for families when not competing. Visit the Zuckerman Museum on KSU's campus. Participate in the Sturgis Library Scavenger Hunt. Participate in the Scaly Adventures show on the 1st floor the Science Building. Fly drones with Civil Air Patrol in the 1st Floor lobby of the Science Building.
