This exciting event, open to youth in grades 4-8, invites you to channel your inner gear head and build the fastest, most innovative rubber band car imaginable. Using simple materials like cardboard, straws, and of course rubber bands, you’ll be challenged to design, build, and race your miniature masterpiece.
