Wyoming Students win 3rd Annual Cardboard Canoe Regatta


The Wyoming High School Introduction to Engineering class competed in the 3rd Annual Cardboard Canoe Regatta against Milford High School on Friday, May 13th.

Wyoming paddled its way to victory by winning 11 out of 16 heats.

Students showed off their buoyancy skills by designing and building two person boats. Construction materials consisted of only cardboard and duct tape. Each boat race was the length of the pool and back.


Wyoming dominated with speed, owning the 6 fastest times with top three of 45.5, 46 and 48 seconds.

The forty students who participated extend thanks to:

Wyoming HS teachers Mr. Fitzgerald, Mr. Dewitt and Mr. Felzcan for their leadership and instruction which paid off in the victory.

Upper classman Phillip Schuholz, Marcus Finney and Evan Handler.

Steve Schuholz and Leo Gallick to providing boat transportation.
