Golf Magazine Contest

[cireyamel]

I was bored in Detroit at a conference and I caught that article about a contest in Golf Magazine: What's the most creative thing you can create out of golf balls, golf tees and peanut butter.

Within an hour on the cell phone I had 3,000 former range balls, 3,000 tees and 50 pounds of peanut butter (all donated) and a teacher who was crazy enough to let about 50 high school kids try and pull it off. In all, we had about 15 entries...well, attempts at entries...some of it just ended up a big mess.

So, today after school, students spent up to five hours creating their "art."

I posted three of the photos here . It was a hoot. And, in the end, the golf balls and tees are all being cleaned to be used at the "tent" ranges in the gyms of the local high school.

(And yes, we did cheat a little bit by one group painting the balls, but this is all made out of peanut butter and golf balls. It was also pouring rain, so we used half-inch insulation foam as are bases on a cafeteria floor.)

p.s. The top one is an entire Pac-Man screen. The second one is the painted balls. The third one is just a complete commerical sell-out
