Description
THE CARDBOARD YACHT REGATTA RETURNS! We missed all of the fun of the annual Cardboard Yacht Regatta last year, but we are excited to renew this annual summer tradition at the Beach House! Have you ever dreamed of setting sail across the waters in your very own yacht? Now you can build your own cardboard yacht and test its seaworthiness in a race across the Beach House Pool. Build a yacht using just corrugated cardboard and duct tape, decorate it, cross your fingers and hope you can make it to the other side.
Two people must be in the yacht during the race. All boats must be human-powered (no motors).People's Choice Awards will be given in a variety of categories, including "Most Likely to Sink", "Best Use of Theme", and "Most Spirited". The Beach House Courtyard will open for yachts to be on display beginning at 11am. Races will launch beginning at 1pm. Please read attached information sheet for more details on the Cardboard Yacht Regatta, including appropriate yacht building materials, regatta rules and an event timeline.
For questions or more information, visit the Annenberg Community Beach House website, or call the Beach House at 310-458-4904.
Preregistration required to race your yacht. Register early and enjoy building your boat with friends and family! $20 entry fee per yacht. Payment is NOT required for each sailor who will be in the yacht. Parking passes for the day are included for participants. This is a team registration. Please register once per yacht that will be entered in the event.
You will be asked for the names and ages of sailors in the registration process.
Per the recommendations of the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health, to enhance safety and lower the risk of transmission at large outdoor events, it is recommended that unvaccinated attendees wear masks when they are in crowded outdoor settings and when they are in sustained close contact with others whose vaccination status is not known. The Cardboard Yacht Regatta is held outdoors. However, at times, it may be difficult to practice effective physical distancing. Please be prepared to wear a mask as appropriate and respect the decisions of those around you to wear a mask or not.
The 2021 Cardboard Yacht Regatta is sponsored by Gregory Annenberg Weingarten, GRoW @ Annenberg.
