Cardboard Cup Regatta
🚣 Crystal Lake Cardboard Cup Regatta
It’s time to build our boat! Get ready for one of the most fun and hilarious events of the summer. Our boat can be fast, quirky, creative, crazy—or maybe it won’t float at all! The goal is simple: work together, have fun building and painting the boat, and enjoy an unforgettable day at the beach with fellow Explorer Princess families.
The girls will kick off the fun at the Summer Campout by participating in the official Boat Design Contest, where creativity and imagination take center stage before race day! If you are unable to attend the Summer Campout and your family would like to participate in the boat design contest, 👉 Click here to download the design sheet and submit your drawing before the Summer Campout (June 5th) as the girls will be voting on the boat design that Sunday morning.
