Lake Coeur d'Alene Cardboard Boat Regatta
As part of the 2012 Annual Wooden Boat Show (August 18, 19), the Coeur d’Alene Chamber of Commerce is also sponsoring The Lake Coeur d’Alene Cardboard Regatta. This fun event is a chance for teams of three to show off their boat design and construction skills and then to prove their boat's seaworthiness in a race. Families and friends can join up to participate in this contest; local businesses are encouraged to be represented by staff members.
The races will be held on the 18th; construction starting times will be:
Youth (age 12 - 15) - 11am, Adults (16 - 60) - 12pm, and Corporate/Business at 1pm.
Each team is given a pile of cardboard, scissors, roles of duct tape for building their boat; these are the only supplies allowed in the boat's construction. Teams will have one hour to build their boat and then compete for one of three awards: Race Winner, Judges Favorite, and Titanic Award (best sinking boat.)
