Community Competes in Candy Grabber Challenge

Knowing our Technology Enterprise Park (TEP) community has an affinity for the sweet side of things, we wanted to treat our talented tenants – but not before making them work for it first! With our members being primarily researchers, chemists, and scientists, we wanted to see how their engineering skills fared. So we set up shop in the lobby on a late Thursday afternoon to put them to the test!

Every attendee was provided with a small station filled with various crafting supplies. The goal was to create a mechanism of some sort that allowed them to collect their prize – lots and lots of candy! Whether they were expert builders or occasional crafters, we reaffirmed our community loves a good challenge and will do nearly anything for a sweet reward. And, rather impressively, 73 percent of participants successfully completed the challenge and were able to use their contraption to collect candy!
