Fun with Boxes and Imagination!

Sometimes all you really need is something as simple as boxes to have fun! Our kids had a great imagination day using boxes! We created different pieces with different sizes of boxes. Check out some of our "inventions":

 Phonebooth

 Walkie-Talkies

 Airplane

 Time Machine

 Rocket booster

Our kids were even inspired to make their own inventions and art using boxes and pieces of toys!

What is Bobcat Build?

"A year of planning, a day of service"

 Bobcat Build was started in 2002 and inspired by Texas A&M's Big Event.  This one-day community service project is now the second largest of its kind in the state of Texas.  Bobcat Build is a way to say "Thank You" to the community of San Marcos for supporting the students of Texas State University. 

 

Bobcat Build continues to grow in numbers as this past year was one of our biggest years yet!  We had over 3,400 volunteers and served 168 jobsites!

The San Marcos Housing Authority definitely benefited from the efforts of the students that participated in Bobcat Build 2014. From cleaning up the playgrounds to taking out dead bushes, we'd like to say a big THANK YOU to the following participating groups for helping to keep the Housing Authority beautiful!

Working with Texas State University has given us opportunities to build stronger relationships with the students and in turn, the students become more aware about the community around them. Thank you Bobcat Build!
