Science Museum of Minnesota LEGO Building Contest

Are you a FOL who lives within reasonable distance of the Science Museum of Minnesota? Because if so, they're holding a building contest for anyone ages 4 and up. (Don't worry, the contest is sectioned into age groups; there aren't going to be four year olds crying because an AFOL crushed them.)

 

As this isn't an official LEGO contest, there are a few odd rules (gluing pieces is allowed??? for SHAME) and there is the catch that you MUST be able to bring your entry to the Science Museum in case it becomes a finalist. (Plus, the main prizes are Science Museum of Minnesota oriented, so it's for the best you're able to get there.)

 

I was notified of this contest and figured it'd be nice to share it here, in case anyone on this site who lives in the area was interested in it. Any questions you have are probably answered on the page, and if they aren't, I sure as heck can't answer them.

•Entries must consist entirely of LEGO, Duplo, Megablocks, or other LEGO-compatible plastic bricks and related pieces.

 

WHAAA.

 

Still, sounds like a fun competition, especially if there are school classes that could enter something in as a group, which sounds like a fun thing for kids to do. (Building as a group is more complicated than it seems.) It would be neat if some BZPer could really blow em out of the water tho.

Well, I said they had some weird rules. :P

 

 

The contest seems fun, but I still have no idea what I'm supposed to built and the prizes seem relatively mediocre :(

 

Yeah, the prizes aren't the best; I'm mostly just interested in entering to see how I fare against local talent.

 

I think it's just a free-for-all in terms of what you build. One would think they'd at least specify something science-y, but I guess not.
