GNCTR is open to the public for the following events:

January 26 Technical Exhibit Day: Each team will set up a technical display, incorporating their toboggan in a way that matches their selected theme. This is a great opportunity to see all competing teams' toboggans and ask engineering students how they were designed and constructed.
