Fort Fight Friday

6-7:30 p.m. Friday, Feb. 28

Bloedel Donovan Community Building

If you are interested in reliving a childhood memory of creating forts and outlasting others, check out Bellingham Parks and Recreation Department’s Fort Fight Friday. Teams of two to four individuals must bring sheets, pillows, cardboard and styrofoam to build a fort and try to outlast the other teams in a fight.

Teams will be given 30 minutes to build their fort. After the build, others will judge them and award the most creative fort. After the award ceremony, each team gets dodgeballs and the last fort standing wins.
