ISLAND PROJECT KICK-OFF Tues Jan 26 (1st) and
Wed Jan 27 (3rd)

Please go to the link for Island Challenge 2010 to become informed about what we will be engaged in during the entire third quarter. The documents have been uploaded to the Island Challenge folder

An email was sent out about supplies to collect for this project. In a nutshell, collect cardboard, styrofoam, cloth, cardboard tubes and a variety of "junk drawer" items, which may be used in the design and construction of a landscape model. I have the necessary materials for the construction of a model building on your island. The model and landscape will be completed in Phase Three of this project (month of March).
