| Lockheed Martin Explorer Post 1010 West Point Bridge Contest 2006
We have set up a local contest for Explorer Post 1010. Our code is LMBC. Here is how you get started and join our local contest... (1) Instruct all potential participants in your local contest to register for the West Point Bridge Design Contest at http://bridgecontest.usma.edu/login.htm. If any of your local participants are not "eligible contestants," as defined by the WPBDC rules, that's OK. They can still register in the "Open Competition." (Anyone in the world can enter the Open Competition, though there are no prizes associated with this category.) (2) On the final page of the web registration system (the same page on which teams are asked to provide their e-mail address and password), contestants will see a text box labeled, "If you are participating in a local contest organized by your school, a local engineering association, or other organization, enter your Local Contest Code here." Contestants should enter the Local Contest Code in this text box. Our code is LMBC. (3) The website will check that the code is a valid one and will post a confirmation on the Team Home Page. (4) If a contestant has already registered and did not enter the Local Contest Code at the time of registration, he or she can add it at any time by logging into the Team Home Page. (5) Once your project or contest is underway, you can view your own Local Contest Scoreboard on the following web page: http://bridgecontest.usma.edu/standings/local/LMBC.htm. This scoreboard will be automatically updated at least every 24 hours. Research Some interesting sites...
