Community Park will be full of spectators waiting to see who will float, sink or swim at the “Rowlett Cardboard Boat Regatta”. Contestants will make boats out of cardboard & tape and will rely on their inventions to keep them afloat as they race across the Community Park Pond. Pre-registration is required & all teams will need to collect their own cardboard. Life vests are mandatory for all team members. Trophies will be awarded to the winners!

Age Groups: Youth (8-13); Adult (14+)
Fee: $30

*Perfect team-building activity for schools, churches, local businesses, sports teams, families and friends!
