Sand sculpture challenge
Description:
Grab your buckets and spades and head on down to your local beach for some creative fun in the sand! The Summer by the Sea 2022 sand sculpture challenge runs from 3rd – 25th January and is open to all ages. Show us your finest sculpted mermaid tail, your favourite wild sea creature or something totally out of this world! You are not limited by categories, only by your imagination!
The important details:
- Keep it natural! Sand sculptures must consist of sand only, with the exception of natural items (e.g., wood, rocks, shells, etc.) found on the beach that you might use as decorations. No need to bring decorations from home.
- Respect the beach and creatures’ homes. Do not disturb animals or their habitat and keep out of sand dunes.
- Children should be accompanied by an adult.
- Enjoy the sun but don’t forget to slip, slop, slap, seek and slide!
How to enter:
- Once you’ve completed your sandy masterpiece, take photos and share with us on social media by tagging the Summer by the Sea | Facebook or Instagram (@summerbythesea_vic) and use the hashtag #SBTSsandcastle
- Alternatively, you can email your photos to: coastcare.victoria@delwp.vic.gov.au
Choosing the best:
The top sand sculptures will be chosen by the Coastcare Victoria team, who will be looking for:
- WOW FACTOR – How eye catching is the design?
- CREATIVITY – Is it unique?
- WACKY FACTOR: How weird and wonderful is it?
The best sand sculpture will be announced on January 28th 2022 and will feature on our website.
