Engineering Maker Program - Leprechaun Trap Design
Bring your creativity in this engineering maker program! We'll provide the materials, but it's up to you to create and build the structures that go along with the prompts. This sessions we will be designing and building a Leprechaun Trap using a variety of craft supplies such as toilet paper tubes, cardboard, paper chains, pipe cleaners, and more! Engineering and art from recycled materials is a great way to foster a child's creative expression and design thinking. This program encourages children to tackle problems through creative and innovative solutions. Children will also dive into the 6 processes of science they will observe, predict, question, test, retest and reflect on the materials, how best to use them, and if their solution works. Please only register the children participating in the program.

CANdemonium
CANdemonium is a design and building competition benefiting Missoula Food Bank & Community Center. Local businesses, organizations and students are paired with architects and engineers to design and build giant structures made entirely from full cans of food. This year's theme is prehistoric/dinosaur themed - teams will create structures that look like they thundered straight out of prehistory. All food used in construction goes directly to the food bank to help serve the community. Teams build their canned structures along the walkways of Southgate Mall. Open to local businesses, organizations, school groups, fitness clubs, congregations, or anyone who'd like to support the food bank.
