Description

After being canceled and postponed due to the pandemic, the Washington State Twin Registry (WSTR) is very excited to finally host TwinFest 2023! This event will bring twins from around the state to the Walt Price Gym in Everett, Washington and provide an opportunity for twins to meet other twins, learn about research being done by the WSTR, participate in activities, and listen to a keynote speech by identical twin and NASA astronaut Scott Kelly! While this event is geared towards older children and adults, twins of all ages are welcome to attend! During his record-breaking Year in Space, former NASA Astronaut Captain Scott Kelly captivated the world while laying the groundwork for the future of space exploration. An American hero whose contribution to humanity is as far reaching as his out-of-this-world adventure, he now reveals what he learned during his 143-million-mile mission—including lessons on leadership and teamwork, personal stories of perseverance and the path that led him to secure his place in history. From U.S. Navy fighter pilot to record-holding astronaut, Kelly draws from his experiences to deliver unparalleled life lessons, fascinating stories and candid commentary on his epic journey — all sure to provide us all with a new appreciation for time and space.
