SUMMARY:AIA Sandcastle Competition
DESCRIPTION:The 36th Annual AIA Sandcastle Competition will take place on Saturday, August 12th at East Beach.\nThe AIA SandCastle Competition is a fund-raising event for AIA Houston and ArCH Foundation as well as one of the top five revenue generating events for the City of Galveston. This year over 60 teams have their eyes and shovels set on winning the prestigious Golden Bucket Award. Firms begin months in advance generating ideas, developing designs, and assigning duties. On the day of the event the teams, stretched along the beach front, meticulously sculpt their piles of sand and work non-stop for five hours.\nThe judging of the sculptures is rated on originality of concept, artistic execution, technical difficulty, carving technique, and utilization of the site. In addition to the Golden Bucket, awards are given in several categories including Best Traditional Castle, Best Architectural Icon, Kidtastic! – LEGO Edition, Best Science Fiction, Best Sports and Houston-centric as well as best team t-shirt design, best team signage, best costume, and public favorite. At the end of the day, everyone goes home with memories of a great day at the beach filled with fun, sand, and sun.\n			\n				\n										\n												\n							\n						\n						\n											\n\n					\n	\n			\n\n\n(function($){\n	"use strict";\n	$( document ).ready(function() {\n		jQuery('#yotu-carousel-6a3c922fe4c19 ul').owlCarousel({\n			nav: true,\n			center:false,\n			loop:false,\n			margin:10,\n			startPosition: 0,\n			responsiveClass:true,\n			responsive:{\n				0:{items:2, nav:true},\n				600:{items:4, nav:true},\n				1000:{items:3, nav:true},\n				1440:{items:3, nav:true}\n			},\n			onRefreshed: function (event){\n				\n			}\n		});\n	});\n\n\n})(jQuery);\n\n\n	Load more\n\n				\n			\n			\n
