To the Tuesday morning Awards Ceremony
Due to the large number of teams that completed projects and the large
number of supporters who want to attend the 9:00 am Awards Ceremony, we have had
to move it from the Study Center at LANL to the auditorium of the Church
of Christ, 2323 Diamond Drive, in Los Alamos.
From the Best Western and Quality Inn, go west to Diamond Drive and take
a right then go 1.2 miles north to the church building which is on the left
at 2323 Diamond Drive.
From the Hampton Inn in White Rock, head back Hwy 4 to the truck route
and go left on it. When you get to the Diamond Drive intersection, bear
right and go across the bridge to the north and the church building is
1.6 miles ahead on the left.
From outside Los Alamos, follow NM 502 through town and turn right
onto Diamond Drive and go 1.2 miles north to the church building which
