APEGBC Sea to Sky Branch
9th annual
popsicle stick bridge building contest
2 years ago Brieghann & her grandpa entered
this year Truman (age 6, grade 1) & his dad (me) built & entered our own bridges
Truman's was the very first bridge to be tested this year
The Professional Engineers and Geoscientists of BC who organize this annual event, again did a wonderful job.
