2019 Results – Cardboard Boat Races

60 students from across Manitoba showed off their amazing skills and creativity at the 13th Annual Cardboard Boat Race on December 4, 2019. Students constructed a boat using two sheets of cardboard and a few accessories including duct tape and contact cement. Once completed, the teams spent the afternoon testing their boats in both a race and a weight challenge in the pool.
Winning boats were as follows;
