really convenient we had a wide open
really convenient we had a wide open courtyard last year so we had about five
courtyard last year so we had about five
courtyard last year so we had about five or six problems in front of us
or six problems in front of us
or six problems in front of us but we took them at a time what’s the
but we took them at a time what’s the
but we took them at a time what’s the first step find out what we’re gonna do
first step find out what we’re gonna do
first step find out what we’re gonna do with the maze so we sat down and we came
with the maze so we sat down and we came
with the maze so we sat down and we came up with a game how do we use it maze
up with a game how do we use it maze
up with a game how do we use it maze okay we came up with really awesome
okay we came up with really awesome
okay we came up with really awesome scenarios of something like the zombie
scenarios of something like the zombie
scenarios of something like the zombie apocalypse
apocalypse
apocalypse it was a really fun day I don’t have
it was a really fun day I don’t have
it was a really fun day I don’t have time to go into detail about the game
time to go into detail about the game
time to go into detail about the game itself but you can talk to me afterwards
itself but you can talk to me afterwards
itself but you can talk to me afterwards I can tell you so once we came up with a
I can tell you so once we came up with a
I can tell you so once we came up with a solution of what to do with the maze how
solution of what to do with the maze how
solution of what to do with the maze how do we build the maze then we were going
do we build the maze then we were going
do we build the maze then we were going so we were trying to come up with
so we were trying to come up with
so we were trying to come up with solutions how to build a maze one of the
solutions how to build a maze one of the
solutions how to build a maze one of the members in our team said that she knows
members in our team said that she knows
members in our team said that she knows an architect her sister actually so she
an architect her sister actually so she
an architect her sister actually so she sat down with her and gave her the
sat down with her and gave her the
sat down with her and gave her the guidelines of what we needed and they
guidelines of what we needed and they
guidelines of what we needed and they designed the maze together then we had
designed the maze together then we had
designed the maze together then we had an outline of the maze the next step
an outline of the maze the next step
an outline of the maze the next step build the maze so while we had members
build the maze so while we had members
build the maze so while we had members trying to get permission to actually use
trying to get permission to actually use
trying to get permission to actually use this area we just started working anyway

we started making out the layouts
we started making out the layouts this is us working in night at night so
this is us working in night at night so
this is us working in night at night so you can see us measuring out the layout
you can see us measuring out the layout
you can see us measuring out the layout of the maze and keep in mind at this
of the maze and keep in mind at this
of the maze and keep in mind at this time we still have no idea how we’re
time we still have no idea how we’re
time we still have no idea how we’re gonna build the maze but we solved our
gonna build the maze but we solved our
gonna build the maze but we solved our first problem which was what we’re gonna
first problem which was what we’re gonna
first problem which was what we’re gonna do with the maze now you see the chalk
do with the maze now you see the chalk
do with the maze now you see the chalk over there that we’re using the maze was
over there that we’re using the maze was
over there that we’re using the maze was huge it ran out with about a quarter
huge it ran out with about a quarter
huge it ran out with about a quarter over well the only 1/4 of the maze was
over well the only 1/4 of the maze was
over well the only 1/4 of the maze was mapped out three-quarters of the mazes
