Human Bowling Balls

DreamItCampers participating in the Dream it, Build it, Destroy it course presented by the Franklin Institute within the Center for Growth and Innovation program (CGI) are planning, building, and destroying creations of their own this week.

One of today’s challenges was to build a human bowling pin set using only 50 plastic cupsĀ that could withstand a rolling camper on a seated scooter. The group that built a pin-set that surrendered the least amount of fallen cups when the camper ran into them was deemed the winner. Campers built up their cups in all sorts of shapes, depths, and sizes until they figured out the perfect solutions.

Take a look at all of the bowling fun they had!
