Normally, Trafton South 273 (TS–273) is the South Central/Southwest Minnesota Regional Science & Engineering Fair (SC/SW MN RSEF) office. It is located just above the greenhouse on the extreme south side of the building.
During the Elementary Science Fair, the south building of Trafton is also the meeting place for volunteer judges, coordinators, and staff personnel.
The SC/SW MN Regional Science & Engineering Fair for the Elementary Division is divided into two arenas alphabetically by the physical location or town of the school. The Taylor Center and Myers Field House are used to display the projects. The Awards Ceremonies generally will take place within the same arena the students' projects were displayed in. Each site's groups will be announced prior to events, but after all registrations. Registration tables are placed inside each of the arenas.
The Student Union is the site of the SC/SW MN Regional Science & Engineering Fair for the Middle School/Senior High Division. The fair takes place annually in the Ballroom on the second floor. The judges have meeting rooms within the Student Union. A registration table is placed on the first floor near the outside doors.
Oral presentations of the invited research paper finalists are done in Morris Hall which is conveniently connected to the Student Union.
The Awards Ceremony may take place in the Ostrander Conference Auditorium or the CSU Ballroom depending upon the size of the group.
Registration tables have been placed conveniently near the assigned arenas.
