These guys have only 3 days to complete their projects.Big Foot taking shape.Big Foot completed! It got 7th place. Coral voted for this guy to win.
The details were amazing. "Spirit of the North" got 2nd. This one is called "The Waiting Game" It got 6th but won the "Peoples Choice" award.

This Guy won 1st place for "All Creatures Great and Small". This bench was difficult.
The zoo will make good use of this bench. It got 7th place.

I liked the bison carving. Coral thought the bison looked wierd.
