Entry Deadline Extention:
It has become apparent that the cold winter weather and wet raw spring weather is making it difficult for contestants to finish their models, especially in the northern states.  As a result of this, FlisKits has decided to extend the deadline for entries to Midnight (EST) on 31-May-2005.

3. Employees of FlisKits, Inc. and members of their immediate families are not eligible to enter.

4. Deuce based designs that have been entered into the FlisKits Design of the Month contest are still elligeble to enter the Deuce-Bash contest.  The goal is to get as many designs submitted as possible to show the versitility of this design.  NOTE: If you have entered your design in the DOM, you must reenter it here, with full documentation, if you wish to participate in the Deuce-Bash contest.

5. Designs should be sent to FlisKits, Inc., Deuce-Bash Contest, 6 Jennifer Drive, Merrimack, NH, 03054, or via Email to deuce_bash@fliskits.com.  However, all Deuce's Wild! based plans sent to FlisKits, Inc. which are not specifically addressed to another contest or department will be automatically placed in the Deuce-Bash contest
