Cardboard Camp- Cardboard City
Youth worked hard all week building Cardboard City. Some city features included a barn, tractor, hospital, ambulance, apartment buildings, post office, airport, an airplane, and so much more. During the last day, the youth completed a team challenge of building the tallest skyscraper. The creativity of the youth was amazing to see all week as well as them all working together to develop their Cardboard City. Check out the Facebook page for more pictures of the week! Next year's Cardboard camp theme has not been determined. If you are interested in being on the planning committee please reach out to Tracy.
