Community Cardboard Challenge!


On October 1st, from 9am-12pm we are hosting a Cardboard Challenge at WHES as part of the Global Cardboard Challenge!  The challenge is all about bringing the community together for a day of collaboration, imagination, and play.   The Columbus Museum of Art is spearheading the effort to get many local schools and organizations to participate, and will be on site helping to document the event.  Inspired by Caine’s Arcade (
http://cainesarcade.com/), the Cardboard Challenge has grown to an annual event celebrating creative thinking and active play.

We need materials to help make the event a success, and are asking each grade level to contribute specific items.

K- aluminum foil, foil scraps, boxes of any kind
1- duct tape
2- fabric scraps, fabric remnants, yarn or string
3- markers
4- cardboard tubes (toilet or paper towel rolls)
5- packing tape, masking tape
6- cardboard, cereal boxes, shoe boxes

Please send in items to school with your child.  Ms. Koontz will have collection bins outside her classroom. 
Questions or would like to volunteer?  Email Ms. Koontz at lkoontz@wscloud.org or Karina Hohn at hohnk@hotmail.com.
