Join the Dog House Blitz!

The Habitat for Humanity Dog House Blitz is scheduled for 2 to 5 p.m. Sept. 21 at Magic Island Park.

The entry deadline is Sept. 17. The fee is $40 per team.

Can your civic, work or church group build the fastest, the best and the most attractive dog house?

The Big Dog Prize goes to the team that finishes first with the least number of defects in workmanship.

The Show Dog Prize goes to the team that decorates the completed dog house with the most creativity and style.

Teams can be of any size, but all work has to be done inside a 10-foot-by-10-foot area. All material required for construction will be supplied, although teams must provide decorating materials such as paint. Teams also will provide their own tools. No power or battery-operated tools are allowed.

No team will see the plans until the competition begins.
