🌊🎉 ONE WEEK until the 2025 Cardboard Boat Regatta at Sheedy Shores! Food, Drinks, Music from Dave Littrell and Cardboard Boat creations setting sail!

No matter where you’re at—✅ your boat is finished, ✅ you’re just starting, or ✅ you’re still wondering how in the world a cardboard boat can actually float—there’s still room for YOU to join the fun! If you need help sourcing some cardboard 📦- be sure to contact Two Men and a Truck Springfield IL and they can likely help you out!

You’ve got 1 week left to get creative, gather your crew, and build a boat that will (hopefully 😉) make it across the water.

Bring the family, bring your friends, and come be part of the laughter, cheers, and splashes! 💦
