During our meets we would build cardboard suits, do cardboard dances, cardboard obstacle courses, and potentially cardboard comedy skits which we will instruct. We will provide the cardboard and the craft supplies to make the boxes, and design them so that they shine in their own unique way. As of now all members will be responsible for carrying around and storing their own cardboard suits, however we are working on finding a storage space in school.
Do you like:
- Creativity and working with your hands?
- Making friends and expressing yourself through costume?
- Taking a break from school stress by being goofy?
If so, you should join!
