Overview

The Water Contest is your chance to chill out and make something water-related. All projects that incorporate the use of water in any way are eligible. For example you could make something that holds water, is powered by water, or is meant to be used in water; the possibilities are as vast the ocean. Show us your most ingenious water-related creations!

The best water projects will have the opportunity to win some inflatable water fun in the form of a 2-person kayak or an inflatable hot tub. Stop treading water and get moving! You only have 2 months to show us your best water-related project!

The Water Contest is closed.
