One "Can" make a difference!



August 12th, 2009 was our annual Canstruction project. The Washington County Fair hosted the event this year. Canstruction is an event where teams get together and build incredible structures made entirely from canned goods. The Canstruction teams raised tons of food to build their structures which at the end of the county fair is donated to local food banks. There were 10 teams this year and 5 of the ten were YVC teams. We were excited with the participation and the unique structures that were created. Five Category awards were given including: Best Meal, Best use of Labels, Structural Integrity, Creativity, and Judge's choice. All the pictures are not available to me at this time, however, we will post them as they come available. The pictures included in this post are from the Washington County Youth Court structure of the Supreme Court Building titled "Justice Served".
