Get ready to set sail in the best water race of the year! Registration is now underway for our 3rd annual Cardboard Boat Race, on Saturday, March 7 at High Blue, 16400 N. Mullen Road, Belton. Check-in at 11am and race starts at Noon!

Grab your team, unleash your creativity, and build a cardboard vessel worthy of the high seas (or at least the lap pool at High Blue). Just remember your boat must be made of cardboard and duct tape only…no wood, styrofoam, plastic, etc. Boat captains will compete for glory in three categories: fastest speed, most creative design, and most spectacular sinking…all divided by age groups.

Add this event to your calendar and start designing today! Registration is required, so don't miss your chance to make waves!
