>"The Lemelson-MIT Awards Program is looking for MIT students to 
>mentor student teams during our High School Design Challenge: The 
>Windy 500 to be held on Friday, May 4 at the Museum of Science! This 
>will be one key event during our multi-day EurekaFest celebration 
>that we are hosting with the MOS. MIT student volunteers should have 
>building experience plus an interest in or experience as a student 
>mentoring. We'll need MIT students to help us out from 8 a.m. to 4 
>p.m. plus participate in a couple of hours of mentor training on 
>April 27th from 5-7 pm at the Museum of Science (we'll provide 
>transportation from campus and food!).
>
>The Windy 500 will include over 100 Boston-area high school students 
>and teachers collaborating with experienced inventors to design, 
>build, test, and race wind-powered carts during the daylong design 
>challenge. High school students will hear directly from Lemelson-MIT 
>Award winners about their inventive careers, and mingle with them 
>over lunch. MIT student mentors, too, will enjoy lunch with the high 
>school students and the inventors. The day concludes with a final 
>team competition and prizes.
>
>If you are interested in volunteering as a mentor for the Windy 500, 
>please respond with a brief paragraph about your background and 
>previous building experience.
>
>Feel free to contact me if you have any other questions ( 
>idudek at mit.edu, 253-3490).
>
>I look forward to hearing from you!
