Port of Toledo's Family Boat Build,
2013
March 25-29 2013 (Spring Break)
The Port of Toledo is hosting a Family Boat Build at the Toledo
Community Boathouse
This year, we are building QT Skiffs - excellent little
boats capable of carrying two adults and light enough to be transported
on top of a car.
This event is open to any family or team that can
- pay the $200 Participation Fee
- commit to fielding at least four (4) participants - 12-years-old
or older - each day of the event
There are no additional costs - for $200, you and
your team get to build, paint, and go home with a real, functioning,
boat.
Interested? Contact the Port of Toledo with your check
for $200 and your list of participants.
