Construction Center
At the Construction Center, citizens work together on cool projects that make JA BizTown even better. They design and build models of new buildings, create useful items for the town, and solve problems along the way. It’s a hands-on experience that mixes creativity, teamwork, and fun! By the end of the day, citizens get to see and use the awesome results of their hard work. It’s a great way to learn, build, and make a difference in the town!
