Get ready to make a splash and compete for ultimate bragging rights at this year's Cardboard Boat Derby event from 2-6 pm on Saturday, August 2 at the Sierra Recreation Center.
The Cardboard Boat Derby is a fun team-based activity where teams of four design and build a boat out of limited supplies.
Teams are provided with two pieces of cardboard, a roll of duct tape, and utility knife and have an hour to build their boat before lining up for the derby to see whose design can stay afloat the longest. A single rider races the finished boat across the pool. Before the big race, community members will enjoy family recreational swimming, games, and activities.
The cost to enter the boat derby race is $30 (for a team of four or fewer) with online registration available at cityofmissionviejo.org/register by referencing course #150178 (ages 6-10) or #150177 (age 11+). Teams are split into two age groups.
The Sierra Recreation Center is located at 26887 Recodo Lane. For more information, contact 949-859-4348, option 3, or email fitness@cityofmissionviejo.org.
The City is grateful to sponsor Big Blue Swim School.
