Harrison's weekend project was to make a prototype of his invention for the Invent Iowa fair. This is one of the options offered through the PACT (Program for Academic & Creative Talent) program at Franklin. Apparently, the student misses class for an hour a week and talks about what to invent, then the weekend before the competition, he and his parents are responsible for putting the entire project and presentation together.
Luckily we had the weekend free (yay no more North Cedar commitments!) and G-Boy was available to offer expertise. The final result: The Fishing Bow! This is a handy tool for any outdoorsman who wants the flexibility to bow hunt or fish at a moment's notice, as prey makes itself available. We are very lucky to have our particular backyard, which made the promo photo shoot much more convenient.
Here are some of the photos Harrison used in his display:
