Model Boat Building and Regatta

BRING THE KIDS - BRING YOUR FOLKS - BUILD & SAIL YOUR VERY OWN BOAT

These small treasures are more than just toys, they really sail.

This is a fun, educational activity the whole family will enjoy. 

Build

Thursday July 4, 2024 10:00am-1pm

Jeremiah Lee Mansion Gardens, 161 Washington Street

Sail

Thursday July 4, 2024  3:00pm

 Redd’s Pond, intersection of Norman Street and Pond Street.

This popular event begins with a workshop where children construct and design a model sailboat at the Lee Mansion Gardens, and then sail it at Redd’s Pond competing against all the other boats! Family team participation is encouraged. Children must have adult supervision. Model Boat Kits can be purchased, put together, and painted anytime between 10:00am-1:00pm.

 

While your waterbound creation dries, families can enjoy time at the street festival or lunch in town. Pick up your sailboat masterpiece and then head to Redd’s Pond for the beloved annual Regatta at 3:00pm. 

*Model Boat kits are $30, cash or credit card only.
