Tarkington Students Creating Games for the Cardboard Challenge

On Thursday, April 27th Tarkington School along with Helping Paws is hosting our third annual Cardboard Challenge as a fundraiser for our NEU Tarkington Scholarship. Last year we were able to give $500 scholarships to two former Tarkington students from Wheeling High School. The Cardboard Challenge is a worldwide celebration of child creativity. Students and families will create and build an arcade style game using cardboard, recycled materials and imagination. You are welcome to make your game at home and bring it the day of play or you can create it using the collected materials on the build date.

We are asking all participants to make a donation towards the Tarkington Scholarship to secure their place in the Cardboard Challenge. If you are interested in participating in the Cardboard Challenge or you would like to play the games on the night of the Challenge, click for more information in English or Spanish.
