Design and build the tools you need to survive being shipwrecked on a deserted island.

Do you have what it takes to survive and be rescued? Working in small teams, participants rely on their creativity to design survival tools using the materials provided in their "supplies crate." Learn about teamwork, brainstorming, innovation, and creative material reuse by trying to create a protective shelter, a method for gathering food, and a signal for help. Once they come up with their designs, the teams will test them out for feasibility before having a "design review" with the program staff.
