I found this DFRobot challenge and I thought, 'Hey, it's been a while since anyone has posted a link to a contest on LMR'.
Then I thought, 'What's the difference between an external contest by some other website and an LMR Challenge?'
So I'm posting a link to the DFRobot Christmas Challenge.
Here's some info from their site, just for convenience.
