17th Annual Stockton Bathtub Boat Race
Last Sunday in August - Yearly
Overview
Always the last Sunday in August this quirky and fun event happens at the Louis Park Boat Launch. Participants race home-made, non-motorized watercrafts against each other.
Everyone is encouraged to show their creativity and build a bathtub racer. It doesn't have to be a bathtub, just anything you think will float. Use any creative materials you like as long as they are not something originally designed to be a boat. (Kayak, raft, canoe, boat etc.)
All are welcome - young and old alike. And if you're not feeling especially creative, just come cheer on the others. It's great family fun to see the unusual boats the racers have designed every year. See who floats and who sinks. It's really a fun afternoon. And it's free!
