Waiver for Float Your Boat
Parents, I need two waivers signed before Saturday morning so your kids can participate in the float your boat race..
Could you all meet me at the Hallsville Fairgrounds between 6pm & 7pm on Friday night to sign waivers. We can’t sign in our boat until all waivers for their kids are signed by parents.
I have to have them all signed before I go on Saturday morning.
Details for Saturday morning:
Thank you for being a part of The Food Bank’s Float Your Boat Cardboard Regatta! We are excited to see your creativity and boats in action! Here is the schedule for April 27th:
· 9 a.m. – You can begin checking in your boats and teams at Bass Pro Shops in Columbia, MO. We need all boats in place and on display before 10:00 a.m. for inspectors and judges to be able to see them. You must have both waivers signed by ALL team members to check-in. Please do this BEFORE arriving at check-in.
· 10 a.m. – Spectators and the general public begin arriving. People’s Choice tickets (for people to vote) can be purchased at the merch tent until 11 a.m., at which point a volunteer will collect your buckets for counting. If you have any money that you collected for your boat prior to event day, please put that in your bucket or give it to Julie Dorn of The Food Bank staff.
· 11 a.m. – Let the races begin! We will start with a Short Course and then immediately do an Awards Ceremony for all Short Course teams. We will then start the Long Course races and conclude with an Awards Ceremony for all Long Course teams. There are seven awards that can be won in each course:
o 1st Place
o 2nd Place
o 3rd Place
o Allure of the Sea Award – awarded to the team that shows the most effort in engineering, construction and aesthetic.
o Captain’s Award – awarded to the team with the most spirit. Costumes, enthusiasm and overall commitment to the theme are taken into consideration.
o Titanic Award – awarded to the team that sinks in the most spectacular fashion.
o People’s Choice Award– awarded to the team that raises the most money for The Food Bank and gets the most votes by the general public!
Please let me know you received this email and let me know if you can come on Friday night.
If you have any questions let me know.

Hi, everyone! Float Your Boat is this Saturday at Bass Pro Lake. The team has worked hard on design, build, and other details, and now it’s our turn to help them win the People’s Choice Award! You can donate by clicking the link below or scanning the QR code on the photo below with your smartphone. Also, it would be SUPER helpful if you could share this graphic and our fundraising page link with your friends and family to help spread the word. I will put a public post on my personal page with all of the details if it is easier for you to go share from there.
