The Dynamic Dumpster Division Duo and the Day After Christmas
I, as a keen and practiced observer of Americankind, foresee in your very, very near future, a great abundance and variety of trash. Bits and sheets of wrapping paper, amazing variety of ribbons, and a playworthy plethora of bows, lids, and box bottoms. In other words, everything you need involve everyone in making art and playing junkyard sports, right there, in the wherever, with the whomever.
For the junk art, you would probably want to invite people like the Dynamic Dumpster Division Duo to come and play with you. These women, creators of Trashopia, and the Great Mystery Bag Trash Art Challenge, have made the whole junk-art thing into a kind of universal play form. And then, when you're ready to take a break from all that universal art-making, you can have your Junkyard Sports-like experience, starting off with something perhaps very much like Junkyard Golf. Or Baseball, maybe. Box-lid baseball with ribbon balls or something.
