This year, through the cooperation of Bentley, the students were provided an opportunity to use the real engineering tool of the Bentley MicroStation engineering program. Students for Lionville Middle School developed a 3-D model of one of the buildings in their city, Solarus 2, and presented it to over 150 people at the Awards Ceremony. Bentley provided the software and training for these students so they could further their education in engineering
