For 2006, the WERC competition returned to
tents. For the previous four years (2002-2005), it had been held in the Pan Am
Center on the NMSU campus, but that building was undergoing renovations and
couldn't be used. We apparently will be back in the Pan Am Center for
2007.

Las Cruces, awaits transport the last 50 feet to its final resting
place. |

 |
| Four guys, two of whom have bad backs,
pick it up and carry it. I volunteered to take the picture. |
| |
| Unpacking and assembling. |

 |
| |
 |
| Time for a little levity. (A very
little!) |
| |
| Taking a break. |
 |

 |
| Relaxing a bit after completing the
assembly. |

 |
| Ready for the judges! |

 |
| The judges visit! |
Prepping for the oral presentation.
 |
| Reviewing the presentation the night before. |

 |
| Squinting into the sun as this was taken before
departing the motel. |
| |
 |
| Very dapper! |
| |
 |
| Then again, maybe not. |
| |
 |
| Need the female presence to class things up a bit. |
