The competition portion of the 2025 Repurposed DooDad Sculpture Competition has officially concluded, and we are incredibly grateful to the students, teachers, families, and schools who brought this year’s theme to life with such imagination and ingenuity.

From inventive uses of obsolete objects to thoughtful interpretations of “Florida, Flying into the Future,” the sculptures submitted this year demonstrated the creativity, humor, and environmental awareness that make the DooDad Competition so special.

Judging and People’s Choice Voting has completed! 🎉

While the judging is complete, the celebration continues! Many of this year’s sculptures are now being featured in exhibitions throughout the Tampa Bay area.

Description: Bird’s Eye View. :   I made this sculpture of a drone plane out of recycled materials such as an old broken slinky toy, disposable spoons, fishing line, parts of an obsolete CB radio and wireless speaker and a tin box to reuse. I wanted to make this project to represent how we can use our imaginations individually to create a better future for the environment. In my opinion, I think one day we can use this recycled drone to observe and study places of nature like the Florida Everglades to help know more about and protect endangered species like the ghost orchid. Let’s fly into the future together!
