The Central Interior branch of Engineers and Geoscientists BC is hosting their annual Popsicle Stick Bridge Building Competition on Saturday, April 13 at Pine Centre Mall.

Using a maximum of 100 Popsicle sticks and white school glue, adults and/or children design and build their own innovative bridges at home.

The machine is equipped with a sensor called a load cell that measures the force that is applied to the bridge. Top three bridges that can withstand the most force in each category win a gift card prize.
