Last week, Ryan’s work held their annual Canstruction competition
for the Houston Food Bank. What they would do is divide into teams with their
departments and then purchase a bunch of non-perishable foods and then build
something festive out of it. They have to build it within a certain area and time.
They can make plans ahead of how they want to
build it, but they can’t put any of it together before the competition. It
might sound kind of silly, but it’s a lot of fun for Ryan and his co-workers
and their canstructions turn out pretty cool.
Ryan’s team got second place, last year, by
making a Christmas tree out of their cans. This year they made a stocking with
a Santa on one side and a tree on the other. Ryan went out one night after
work, with their donation money, and picked up the cans for his team. I think
he nearly cleaned the store out of their canned corn.
It turned out pretty awesome. They got first place and
the people’s choice award. They got a few nice prizes for it. So, it was
definitely a fun way to get food a donate it. J
