Gosh! We had so much fun at this event. I am uploading some additional photos. Sorry I can’t upload any video. Check out the DMS Instagram and other social media for more coverage.

They look like they are relaxing, but they were creating sculptures with the clay behind their back!

I’m not sure what you can do with one hand, but this group can sculpt!

The 4-team relay on the wheel was exhilarating! It was kind of like the Olympics! We had the kids vote for the winner.

The Throwdown events were great for the family.

A Classic event at DMS and the Great Pottery Throwdown, was how many bowls you could throw in 10 minutes. Many tried, but only one could win.

In all the events, there was major concentration and intensity, but mostly just fun, food, and games.*

If you weren’t there, sorry you missed a great time, BUT we’ll see you next year!
