The location is Colonial Lanes off of Primrose in Orlando. There will be ten teams of four players. The cost is $10 per person and an additional $3 if you need to rent shoes.

This helps the teams the teams be more competitive, and it also helps ensure that Colonial Lanes will want to have us again in the future. The winning team will be the team with the highest cumulative score at the end of 6 weeks. The first ten teams to register will be the only teams to compete.

Engineer for a Day
April 16, 2010
On April 16th, YMF and Florida Water and Environment Association (FWEA) will be jointly hosting the annual Engineer for a Day Event. This event is designed to educate interested high school junior and senior students on the civil engineering profession. The students generally start off the day at the FDOT office in Orlando. The students attend several guest speaker sessions given by engineering students, faculty and practicing engineers. The morning session is concluded with a mystery design competition and the scholarship winner for the essay contest is announced. In the afternoon the students break out into smaller groups and job shadow an engineer for a portion of his/her day. If you would like to help out by participating in the organizing committee or would like your firm to host a group of students, please contact Richard Villasenor at rvillasenor@millerlegg.com.
