Overview

The sun may be shining brightly and fiercely, but don’t let the warm weather keep you down. It is time to combat the rising temperatures for the Beat the Heat Challenge!

What do you do to keep cool when the heatwaves hit? Make custom sprinklers, lounge in the pool with a homemade flotation device, or chill yourself from the inside with a tasty frozen treat? Whatever your tricks are for keeping cool on a warm day, share them and you could win a SodaStream Power Metal Starter Kit and Kelty Discovery Shade Shelter!
