Make your event or vacation unique with a sand sculpture or lesson by SandiCastles! SCULPTURES: SandiCastles provides personalized sand sculptures to provide a unique and memorable addition to

any event. Capture a special someone’s or many guests' attention and make them feel special with a design meaningful to the gathering. Sculptures can be done on a beach or at any site –inside or out- where sand can be delivered. Consider a sand sculpture for your wedding, reunion, conference, or promotional event! LESSONS: Learning to build sand sculptures the way the professionals do is a great activity for groups of all ages. We teach the ways to make sand ‘stand up’ and the tools used to carve it. Want to take away a ribbon at your local amateur competition? Take a lesson and learn how to go tall and add special features to your creation! TEAM BUILDING: Corporate groups and other organizations that want a fun and challenging team building session should consider SandiCastles for their next outing. After 30+ years experience working with businesses, Sandi brings her expertise in team building to the sand. Effective team building activities include fun and positive interaction as participants work to increase the effectiveness of a work group. With some fun competition and a plot of sand and carving tools, groups need to work together to create a sand sculpture that is judged on aesthetics, creativity, and story. While doing so, Sandi observes various aspects of each groups’ actions and communication for a follow up debriefing session. Team building with sand is fun and provides work groups with learning that will be long remembered. SandiCastles works throughout southeastern North Carolina including Wrightsville Beach, Topsail and North Topsail Beaches, Holden Beach, Ocean Isle Beach, Sunset Beach, Carolina Beach and Kure Beach. Clients have included Cape Fear Community College Hospitality Conference, Pleasure Island Chamber of Commerce, Capt'N Bills Restaurant, BizTech Conference, Holiday Inn Resort, Battleship Splash, E+ Corporation, New Hanover County Special Olympics, Onslow County Public Library, Onslow County Parks & Recreation, GE Healthcare, the City of Jacksonville, along with many brides, hopeful proposers, and family gatherings.
