Cardboard Boat Race

The rain may have postponed it, but the annual Cardboard Boat Race drew students, faculty, alumni, and friends to the duck pond on Wednesday, May 29. Upper school students spent countless hours under the tent on the dorm quad preparing for race day with boats including: Princess Boat, Higgins Boat (World War II Landing Craft), Computer (Technology Device) Theme Boat, Police Box Boat, Mer-boat, Duck-billed Platypus Boat and Banana Boat. Competitors plunged into the pond after the race to cool off and celebrate the end of the school year.
