Beach Clean-Up

Do a quick 10-minute beach clean-up with your team before the challenge. Be mindful of picking a spot where the tide won't get in the way of your castles. It’s a great way to give back and prep the beach for sandcastle building!

Doing something positive for the environment builds team spirit and shows respect for the location you'll be using.
