Please join us for a free map-a-thon at Harrisburg Area Community College-Gettysburg Campus (731 Old Harrisburg Road, meet in the Commons Area for pizza/snacks).

We will use the HACC Computer Lab to learn how to draw Congressional maps and enter them in our Spring and Fall semester contests. Prizes up to $5,000 for each of three categories (secondary students, college, and adult).

Register at  www.drawthelinespa.org (go to events).

This semesters contest closes on May 31, 2019, so there is ample time to draw maps and enter them. You can enter as an individual, with teams, or from a school class.

If you want to participate to see what this is like, please do so. We can also arrange for a map-a-thon at computer labs in schools, either in class or after school, early in the Fall semester. This will give the students time to learn about redistricting/gerrymandering, drawing maps, and entering the contest.

(Gettysburg College is doing a map-a-thon on April 18, but this is for the College community only)

If you have any questions, please email jcooper1973@comcast.net).
