Colorado people can participate this time. There is an "open" category for that. No purchase of a "kit" required.

The issue I can see is going to be how may people are going to run there, and how hard that category is going to be to judge. I can imagine they will get everything from ocean harbors, to backwoods quarries, and all three scales. NOTE: "The judging will focus on ... how well the modeler interpreted the scale they chose to model." How does one interpret "interpreted"?

And just FYI, I easily spent more than twice the amount of the prize money on my entry last year. They have increased the amount substantially this year, but you have to win. To me the prize wasn't the money, but rather getting published into the 2021 Walther's catalog.
Yup, I saw that. I replied prior to actually looking at the details due to previous desire to participate and CO saying "nope."
