Another successful Cardboard Boat Challenge and Lakes Festival is in the books. Lakes Education Action Drive would like to give a \u201cHUGE\u201d thank you to the City of Lakeland and it\u2019s Lakes and Stormwater Division. Without them, this event would not take place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Friday, we got to host Chip Brewster of FOX 13. He came to Lake Hollingsworth to challenge staff members of the Lakeland Magic and Zoey and Mason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of course, what makes for quality television is, sinking. And, Chip and the Team from the Lakeland Magic did not disappoint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Saturday, about 50 cardboard boats (pre-built and on-site built) competed for the honors of being a survivor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Along with the 50 boats and their teams, the shores of Lake Hollingsworth saw about 300 spectators enjoying this beautiful natural venue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Teams competed in 6 categories. On-Site Family, On-Site Youth, and On-Site Corporate\/Family had 1 1\/2 hours to design and build their boat. While Pre-Built Family, Pre-Built Youth, and Pre-Built Corporate\/Family had to use all of the same materials but could do so prior to the race.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
