Campout Fire Pit Project

Help Us Design a Better Fire Pit

The annual Dad & Me Campout wouldn't be complete without a bonfire.  We want to keep the School lawns in good condition - so we need to design a better fire pit.

We need your collective creativity, engineering, and maker skills! We'll use reclaimed materials to design and build a heat-deflecting pit that won't scorch the earth beneath it. All are invited; we request you register below in case of rescheduling. 

We're kicking off the project with a brainstorming session on April 10th from 7-9pm in the Weston Community Center, Room 303. We'll organize into teams to refine, prototype, test and build the most promising ideas before the June 16th campout. Weston Fire Department has offered to help with the testing.

This event is co-sponsored with the Weston Art & Innovation Center.


NOTE: the Board of health is also holding the Homeowner's workshop around the same time, so note that parking may be tight.
