Plastic Bottle Boats

Rethink what’s possible with a plastic bottle!!!! This week-long engineering experiment is all about being resourceful and repurposing everyday objects into something amazing. Throughout the course, students will collaborate to build floating vessels out of plywood and hundreds of recycled plastic bottles. We will also work with power tools, pool noodles, PVC pipes, and duct tape to bring concepts to life. The program will include a mid-week test float at the Knoll Farm pond, and will culminate with a group paddle across Blueberry Lake in Warren, Vermont.
