Prize Distribution Complete
All participation and winner prizes should have been received via email by now. Due to the phrases contained in the emails (coupons, prizes, free stuff, etc.) there is a high chance some of the emails may have gone to your spam folder. Be sure to check there if you are missing anything. If you haven't received a prize you were expecting, please let us know.
With prize distribution now complete, I would like to thank you all once again for participating. Just like last year, we were very impressed with your projects, and we hope that everyone got something…
