2022 Sandcastle Remix!
Remix all the hits from the 80s to today!
Our 2022 theme is Sandcastle Remix. Each team will pick a sandcastle theme highlighted from the past 40 years to remix in a fresh, new way! Teams will lean into their chosen year’s theme and include throwback elements in their sandcastle design, fundraising, and promotion for this year’s event.
