The Recyclecoaster


My son and I worked on a school project / contest to make a carnival ride out of recycled materials. We opted to do a cardboard box roller coaster. I wish we had more time to work on it. I would have tried to make the loop a little bigger, so the riders wouldn't be banging their heads while they went on it. We did try to score some voter points by including the principal, the teacher, and strategically selected students. I think we would have benefited from more color too. Though we didn't win the contest (the competition was stiff!), we were pretty proud of it!
