36th Annual Cardboard Boat Race Sets Sail
The 36th annual Cardboard Boat Race made waves on Wednesday, May 20, as eight hand-built vessels took to the duck pond in front of a lively crowd. Designed and constructed by teams of upper schoolers, the boats showcased weeks of planning, problem-solving, and fearless ambition.
Racers battled buoyancy and balance across three heats, cheered on by classmates, teachers, and parents. Some boats glided with surprising speed while others met a soggier fate.
The festivities wrapped up at the Fader Innovation Center with the traditional awards ceremony. Congratulations to every participant, and special recognition to the creators of Mario Boat, winners of this year’s BOB (Best Overall Boat) trophy!
Sophomores Kenzie Gardner and Charlotte Crooks have been watching the boat building since they started at McDonogh 10 years ago. For years they have helped construct and paint the cardboard creations, anticipating the day that they could officially join the festivities. Today was that day — and they were part of the team that won BOB!
