DESCRIPTION:When life hands you a box of toothpicks and a bag of marshmall
 ows\, we build!.\nhttps://mcpl.libnet.info/event/17093559
X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p>Join us for a hands-on STEM adventure wher
 e creativity meets engineering! Participants will be tasked to design and 
 build the tallest and strongest towers they can using only toothpicks and 
 marshmallows. Along the way\, young engineers will explore basic principle
 s of structural design\, problem-solving\, and teamwork.</p>\n<p>This fun\
 , interactive program encourages curiosity\, experimentation\, and resilie
 nce as builders test their towers\, make improvements\, and learn how real
  engineers tackle challenges. All materials are provided\, and no experien
 ce is necessary&mdash\;just bring your imagination and get ready to build!

 hool aged students.</strong></p>\n<p></p>\n<p>The <a href="https://marylan
