Please Crush Museum

April 23th, 2017 1pm- 5pm

Join us out in the yard for an intense fort building competition. Ten teams will compete to build the best cardboard fort and then watch them get demolished!

SCHEDULE FOR THE DAY:

1:00- 1:30 Registration
1:30- 3:00 Build
3:00- 3:15 Judging
3:30-4:00 Return to the Waste Stream
4:00-5:00 Hot Dog Hang Out and Awards Ceremony

10 teams of 5 people will have 90 minutes to design and build the best, weirdest, tallest, and/or strongest forts made just from cardboard. RAIR will supply the tools (utility knives, tape, zip ties etc.) and the materials (lots and lots of cardboard boxes). And every fort needs a flag! There will also be a flag making station so that each team can make their own to fly above their fort. A panel of judges will then choose their favorites for each category and custom trophies will be given to the winners. Please Crush Museum ends with a cathartic returning of the cardboard back into the waste stream!
