The Maker Olympics

In addition to the races, we’re also hosting the Maker Olympics. Attendees can compete in carnival-like games to win fun prizes and compete to be the top Maker Olympian!

Games Include:

Hammer Time!: Contestants compete to drive a nail into a board in as few blows and as fast as possible. Size Does Matter: Contestants guess the length of a rod to the nearest 1/8”. Scrapwood Basketball: Contestants have 60 seconds to sink as many scrap pieces into a trashcan as possible. Screw It!: Contestants compete to screw a 1 5/8” screw into a 2×4 using only a handheld screwdriver. Half Ass: Contestants try to cut a piece of clay perfectly in half. Tape Measure Fishing: Contestants compete to pull objects across a table using only a tape measure. Mini Battle Bots: Contestants battle head-to-head to pop each other’s balloons. Make Santa Fe, a non-profit, will sell tickets that contestants will use to compete in the games.

#SantaFe

Santa Fe, NM has a rich history dating back to at least 900 AD. When I lived in New England, many people believed that their relatives were pioneers of civilization in North America, with ancestors that could be traced back to the 1700s. However, even by European standards, La Villa Real de la Santa Fé de San Francisco de Asís is much older than Mayflower era settlements, having been founded in 1610.

Parishioners at Santa María de la Paz Catholic Community in south Santa Fe cried while others sat in stunned silence when Archbishop John C. Wester delivered the devastating news at the start of each Sunday Mass a year ago. > >The head of the Archdiocese of Santa Fe informed churchgoers the Rev. Daniel Balizan, a charismatic pastor and their shepherd for the past decade, had been removed from his post amid an investigation into alleged misconduct.

This is the first announcement on this topic in this locale. I inherited this ride from another superhero, who inherited it from yet another super hero, so it's entirely possible that this ride has been in existence for decades, if not centuries. Dress up in your finest superhero attire, outfit your bike with all your fancy super hero finery. We'll get together for a social paced evening ride to celebrate all the EVIL we've vanquished in the previous lunar month. This is a not drop ride. If anyone suffers a mechanical failure, we'll all stop, pump up the jams and celebrate while repairs are made. This social ride happens approximately monthly, for the obvious reasons implied by orbital mechanics.

We're building a whole new, federated social world, and this tiny little magazine might need some moderating. I figure it's better to plan ahead. Anyone fancy moderating this lovely new magazine? We've grown 600% in two days, and really an infinite amount over any longer time frame. And of course everyone is welcome to post. I'll keep throwing up random Santa Fe stuff as often as I'm able.
