Needed: Playing Cards for Destination Imagination Use
Summit students participating in Destination Imagination need your help! If you have any un-needed playing cards laying around, please send them to 5th grade!
The team will have to build a load-bearing bridge out of playing cards and duct tape live during their competition. We anticipate needing MANY cards for practice purposes! Older cards work better for construction than new cards, but the team will gladly accept any playing cards.
