Relay for Life Cardboard Box Derby

 Join us at relay for our first Cardboard Box Derby at the Glendora Relay for Life. Watch as cardboard artists turn little more than cardboard, paper, tape, glue, string, and anything recycled into the most creative sculptures that you can think of like race cars, UFO's, rockets, army jeeps, big rig trucks, tow trucks, and fire trucks. Test your creativity by constructing a cardboard craft.

The rules to building your craft are simple: constructed solely of cardboard, paper, glue, tape, paint, string, anything recycled. Sponsors names must be printed somewhere on the craft.

Your cardboard vehicle may be simple or complex with one pilot to maneuver one relay lap. Remember the more creative your craft the better your chances for winning. This will be a great way to raise money for relay.
