Come build a water tower!

How tall can you build a water tower out of straws, paper cups and tape?  Tampa Bay Water Kids will be here for a STEM activity where they will provide each student, or you can work as a team, with their own paper cup, paper straws, tape, scissors, and a ruler to build a water tower to see if it can hold water. The towers will be judged based on height, volume and stability.  Come join us in the courtyard for the competition!
