Rocky Mtn Region, High School Space Competition

Hello -

We wanted to make sure the home schooled, high school age students in
New Mexico are aware of this opportunity.

My name is Roy Nielsen - Laurie Hixson at Los Alamos National Laboratory
and I am working with the founders of the International Space Settlement
Design Competition to bring a regional competition to the Rock Mountain
Region.

Please see the website - www.lanl.gov/csse/rmssdc

The student & sponsor pamphlets can be found on that site.

The sponsor pamphlet can be used by the students to attract sponsors to
help them travel to and pay for a hotel room for the event.

Please consider sharing this opportunity with the home schooled students
of New Mexico at this year's semi-finals.

There is no preparation or work required to be completed before the
event this year.

We realize it is short notice, but would like to extend the invitation
to home schooled students.

The winners of this competition will be invited to attend the
Internationals at the NASA Johnson Space Center, in Houston Texas, where
they will compete with students and teams from Africa, Asia, Australia,
Europe and North America.

Please feel free to contact myself or Laurie Hixson for questions or
more information.

We look forward to hearing from you and/or your students,
-Roy Nielsen
