Equipped with just thirty sheets of paper and a roll of tape, kindergarteners through seniors in high school built impressive structures by rolling, folding, taping, and twisting. More than 3,500 paper towers were built during the competition. Morgan and Colton (The Cavemen) placed 1st in their age division as well as overall. Morgan and Colton constructed a tower that was 12 ft tall, using 23 of the 30 pieces of paper. Photo by Jeff Martin.
