Cardboard Boat Racers to Participate in Addison's Build a Boat Contest
Calling all boat cruisers and designers! The Addison Park District is hosting its annual Build A Boat Contest. This race will be held at Community Park outdoor pool on Saturday, August 8th from 12:30 - 1:30 p.m. There is a $6 registration fee for Addison residents and $8 for non-residents.
Build A Boat is a challenge to design and build a human-powered cardboard boat capable of racing 50 meters. All boats are to be designed and built prior to the day of the race. They may be powered by canoe or kayak paddles or muscle power! Stop by after the Touch-A-Truck event at Centennial Park and race a boat!
