On April 27, 2013 MoonTree Studios and Veterans Therapeutic Art Center of Donaldson, Indiana are sponsoring an Earth Week Catapult Contest. The registration fee is $45 per team (minimum of 2 people, maximum of 9) and all team members must be at least 18 years of age or have a parent or guardian present.
The “Build a Catapult Experience” is open to the public as well as VTAC members. Teams are required to register by February 28, 2013 to receive the rules and building guidelines. They can design and build their catapult machine with the help of an experienced MoonTree Wood Shop Facilitator. The Catapult Experience will culminate with a Contest of Catapult Prowess and Launch of Life on the prairie surrounding MoonTree Studios on Saturday, April 27 during Earth Week. Catapults will compete for distance, accuracy, originality of design and decoration, use of recycled material, and even historical accuracy and team insignia or costume. Prizes will be awarded!
The catapult contest’s closing ceremonies will include a Launch of Life, when all catapult teams will line up for a simultaneous launch of seed balls into the grasslands around MoonTree Studios.
Call MoonTree Studios at (574) 935-1712, or VTAC at (574) 400-3258 (ask for Dan) or (574) 328-2108 (ask for Rich).
