Cardboard Castle Mayhem!
(Jan. 13th, 2006)

Wow! What an intense night! First, each team was given a pile of boxes and carboard, some crayons, and a white posterboard for a banner, and 1 roll of duct tape. They had a time limit to build a sturdy tall castle, that had 4 walls and a roof with only the supplies given. As you can see in the pictures, some turned out strong, tall and steady and others...well, they would soon face the firing squad.
After construction was complete, the teams were given some missiles (balls) and told to seek and destroy the enemy! And let me tell you, it took a while for some of those fortresses to come down!
