Here's a better shot of their project. They built wooden fire trucks that are also a coin bank.
It's a pretty cool program Home Depot runs, and it's not just for Brownies. The first Saturday of the month anybody with kids can attend the session. The kids get to choose from several different projects (fire truck bank, birdhouse, picture frame, etc.) and then they build the project with help from mom/dad and a few HD volunteers. And the entire thing is free. Unless we have plans that day, we're going back in December.

I was rummaging around Home Depot a few weekends ago and I saw a ton of kids/parents working like crazy on something. That must be what you're talking about. It's a pretty good idea for a retailer. I'm sure it creates a ton of goodwill among the parents.
Our Neighbors, Wendy and Joel, (the parents of the twin girls) also got to this program and report that its a good time. They even get to keep the Apron. So because it was hunting season and dogs being dogs and running all over the woods, Wendy tied the Orange Home Depot Apron on to the dogs so they wouldn't get shot! It must have worked...they still are running around!
