Last Friday, North Devon Networking met bright and early at the Barnstaple Hotel for the Summer Challenge. What was it?

Everyone was split into teams, shared a quick fact about themselves, then got handed the task sheet, complete with cryptic clues on how to build the best structure. The challenge: 10 minutes to build the tallest free-standing paper tower possible, using just 20 sheets of A4 and 20 inches of sticky tape.

Easy? Er, not as easy as it seemed!

Lots of discussion, amusement and deep thinking (!) later, we had a variety of building styles, from Greek pillars to triangular foundations to an Eiffel Tower.

The winners? "Team Eiffel" - Andreas Nest, Rob Miles and Kelly Collier, whose tower reached an impressive 180cm. Congratulations!

Join us at the next meet-up on Friday 7th August, 7.15am at the Barnstaple Hotel, £17.50 including a very tasty cooked breakfast and hot drinks. Book here: https://northdevonnetworking.co.uk/breakfast-meeting-registration/
