Bridge Building Contest

This year's Bridge Building Contest will be open once more for grades 11 and 12 students, at our High School. It will take place on May 6th, and the current record is of 209.4kg by Sullivan.
The contest is basically set on the rules that the students can only build a 100g bridge with balsa wood and carpenter glue.
