Register Your Team For the YMCA's Cardboard Regatta Race, 8/6

June 8, 2022

Looking for something super fun for you and the family to do this summer? Look no further than the YMCA's 2nd Annual Cardboard Regatta Race happening on Saturday, August 6, 2022 at 10:00 AM at the US Sailing Center. 

Teams of two people will build a boat made completely out of cardboard, duct tape, and paint. The boat must be sturdy enough to hold both team members. On the day of the event, teams will bring their boats and, starting on the sand, will race other boats around a buoy and back without sinking! 

Invite your family and friends to come cheer on your team in this family friendly event! A food truck will also be on site for your dining pleasure.

Prizes will be awarded for best design and most creative in each of the following categories:

  • Child/Child
  • Child/Adult
  • Adult/Adult

Boats will need to be built at home and transported to the US Sailing Center. Google Cardboard Regatta boats for some really cool ideas. 

Entry fee per boat is $25. Teams register online at https://secure.qgiv.com/for/h5wyen/event/849496. Registration ends August 3, 2022

The US Sailing Center is located at 1955 NE Indian River Drive in Jensen Beach, 34957.
