The Ridiculously Large Jacks made another appearance at this year’s Great Milwaukee Race! Members Jason Hillesheim and Mike Massie helped me run 64 games of jacks with teams from the race and a couple of families that stopped by to see what the hubbub was all about!
The Great Milwaukee Race is an annual scavenger hunt race that sends teams of 2-4 sprinting across downtown Milwaukee after decoding clues to various locations where they will be asked to do various challenges. Some stations had teams exercising, putting together an outfit from thrift store clothes, making funny poses, rock climbing or playing games of giant jacks! The Makerspace has been a proud sponsor and participant every year.
This year we were at a super location – in front of “The Calling”, Mark di Suvero’s sculpture near the Milwaukee Art Museum. As you can see from the photo above, “The Calling” looks like a giant jack, so we were particularly pleased!
