FAMILY CARDBOARD YACHT RACE

Sunday, July 26, 2026

We had so much fun in 2025 that we’re bringing the Family Cardboard Yacht Race back in 2026! This exciting event is open to families with children under 18. Design and construct the ultimate yacht using only cardboard and duct tape. Then, race your yacht against other teams in the EdgarMay pool on July 26, 2026.

Prizes will be awarded for Fastest Finish, Most Creative Design, Team Spirit — and even the most spectacular sinking! Let your imagination set sail – and may the best cardboard yacht win!

More details to come. Stay tuned! For more information, contact Youth and Families Program Director Zoe Lirakis.
