Entry Categories

Racing
Any craft whose design and intent is primarily speed like sculls, kayaks, surfboards and racing-type catamarans will be placed in this category*. This race has two categories:
“Youth” ages 8-13
“Adult” ages 14 and up

Military
A special category for our military community, at least one crew member of the milk carton craft must be active duty military.
A trophy will be awarded to the Military race winner.
A prize will be awarded for the Military Race entry judged to be the best design.

Groups & Commercial ($250)
This category is for Groups and Commercial entries. A $250 entry gives your company, law firm, boat club or other group the opportunity to race with a company name, logo or slogan on your vessel. Take the challenge and race to glory on the formidable waters of Green Lake! A minimum of 100 half-gallon cartons or their equivalent is required. This category is not eligible for Showboat or other major prize drawings. Entries must meet conditions of the Open category.

Each participant will receive a 2010 Milk Carton Derby T-shirt & Discount on Torchlight Parade premium seating. The overall winner will be awarded eight one-day passes to the Seafair Hydroplane Race & Air Show as well as 10% of collected entry monies donated to the non-profit of their choice.

Best design will be awarded four one day passes to the Seafair Hydroplane Race & Air Show as well as a trophy.


Open

Any style entry other than Racing, Military or Commercial. This category is for entries where design took precedence over speed in the entry’s construction. It is still however a race to the finish line.
This race has three categories:
“Youth” ages 8-13
“Adult “ ages 14 and up
“Family” kids up to age 13 accompanied by at least one adult

 

 

Parade of Boats & The Showboat Award
While everyone is encouraged to participate in the Parade of Boats, Sponsored Groups/Commercial and Military entries are not eligible to win the Showboat Award.

The Showboat Award is given to the boat which exhibits a creative use of milk cartons as well as the most unique and imaginative design.

(Sponsored Group/Commercial and Military entries are not eligible to win.)

NOTE: The Racing category is for entries designed for speed. The Open category is for entries where design and creative use of milk cartons is the primary purpose but it is still a race. The Showboat award is not open to Sponsored Group/Commercial or Military entrants. *The inspector will place entries in the Racing category if there is any doubt as to the intent of the craft. Open category entries which seriously outdistance the field may be reclassified or disqualified by the judges. All rulings are final.
