Cardboard Boat Regatta

Show off your creative design of a life-size cardboard boat then see how far or long it can float in the Annual Cardboard Boat Regatta in Morgan, Utah! Cardboard boats of all shapes and sizes compete for speed and design. Can you out-paddle your competing friends and teams with your creation? Whether you wish to enter this competition or just come to the edge of the Weber River to watch, you can't help but find this event filled with belly laughs and hundreds of spectators gathered for one of the most enjoyable activities during the Morgan 4th of July Celebration.
