Crawley youths building 'matchstick' bridge for summer project
WOOD strips, super glue and coffee sticks – it can only mean one thing; the Crawley Youth Project 2014 is ready to go!
This year the group have been tasked with building a two-metre bridge that survives when walked over one at a time.
It will be built throughout August in the youth club rooms on Monday, Wednesday and Friday mornings from 9.30am until 11am.
It will be tested on August 30 at CrawleyFest, complete with a paddling pool underneath in case it collapses.
The bridge will also be on display at the Littleton Show on September 6.
