You are welcome to bring your entries to login no later than 6pm. No experience needed. We could use some tables to if you have a 6 foot fold up table, we could use it during login.

We need judges. Judging starts on Friday August 4th. Marcio has been talking to folks about judging. We currently have 15 judges in the BCOEM system. That is a good start but we can always use a few more judges. If you have not signed up to judge, please go to: https://limbocomp.org/bcoem/index.php?section=register&go=judge and register yourself.
