FAQ re: “Can It” Challenge
Posted By: Tegan on June 17, 2010
As the next week goes by, if we get any questions related to the Can It Challenge we will post the answers here for all to see. So if you have any questions just let us know!
Can teams cover cans with coloured construction paper to help achieve their design intent? Yes! Just make sure you leave the original labels intact and that the construction paper is easily removable after the event is finished.
When and where do we go for sign-in/set-up and unloading? Registration is at 9:30am at the SW corner of Churchill Square. Unloading can occur at the SW corner of Churchill Square on 102nd Ave.
In our 10×10 space, how wide can the sculpture go? I know in the description 5′ is the high limit, is that still the case or is it shorter? Do not exceed the 10′ wide limit, and height limit is 5′.
When does the sculpture portion actually start and end? Registration and setup is at 9:30am. We will have a quick welcome and intro at 10:00am, and then sculpture building will start immediately after. Building will end at 3:30pm.
Do the participating team members have to stay until judging time? Not unless you want to see who wins. We do ask that as many members as possible stick around to help dismantle the sculptures.
Can you tell me if the use of a projector will be allowed and whether there will be electricity available? No the use of a projector is not allowed, and we will not have electricity available for the teams.
Can you tell me if our set up area will be outside or inside and if it is outside whether we can bring a 10′ x 10′ sun shelter? This will be weather dependent and will be determined by the organizing committee early that morning based on weather forecasts. If it is raining, we have an indoor area nearby inside the Tix On The Square building. Regardless of weather, all teams are to show up to register and unload their food at the SW corner of Churchill Square. We will have volunteers directing teams and participants of where to set up at the SW corner.
Is there a specific unloading zone for the community leagues or should we be prepared to haul the food donations the distance? The unloading zone will be at the SW corner of Churchill Square, at 100th St and 102nd Ave.
Can teams bring more items for their sculptures throughout the day? Yes teams can bring more items throughout the day, the judging criteria for the sculpture portion is not based on size or number of cans, so even the smallest sculpture could win.
