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.
