My younger brother got involved in the BU engineering and design competition '09. I Volunteered for helping them out (his HS district couldn't screw in a lightbulb on their own, let alone provide technical insight). I know, i went there.

They had a wonderful time, learned about micro controllers and did some heavy engineering for highschoolers.
