Model Water Tower Competition

We are seeking Girl Scout teams to compete in the Girl Fest 2017 Water Tower Competition. Teams will be challenged to build a structurally efficient model water tower that holds water and can be filled and drained quickly, while being aesthetically pleasing. The objective is to make participants aware of the importance of reliable drinking water and to learn about opportunities available in the water profession. Judging will be based on four criteria: structural efficiency, hydraulic efficiency, cost efficiency and design ingenuity. What a perfect complement to the other STEM related activities at Girl Fest!

If this sounds interesting to your troop or Girl Scout friends, contact donnaf@gsccc.org to request additional information along with all competition requirements.  Registration deadline is March 31, 2017.  

Competition is limited to six teams (four girls per team).  The winning team will be announced at Girl Fest.
