Helicopter 2050 LEGO Challenge

Create a helicopter of 2050 that helps overcome today's
global challenges! The New England Air Museum will provide the LEGO bricks that
entrants need to participate.  Prizes
will be awarded by the Museum for the age groups: 3-5, 6-8, 9-12, and entrants
9-16 are encouraged to submit an image of their vision to the 3rd Annual
Helicopter 2050 Challenge by September 30, 2013.  The Grand Prize Winner will win a $1000
scholarship and a visit to Sikorsky headquarters to see how helicopters are
made.  Visitors will also have the chance
to discover the Museum's 80 aircraft, and participate in a variety of
activities.  These include: build and fly
a model, watch a flight science demonstration, hear from a storyteller, and sit
in the cockpit of an aircraft.  Check
