From the sleek and meticulously crafted &#8220;NAG&#8221; designed by engineering by the Vanest\u2019s to the nostalgic DeLorean &#8220;OUTATIME&#8221; with its impressive details, each boat showcased their own unique strengths. Our colorful boat named &#8220;WILD STAR&#8221; navigated playfully along the coastline, while the robust &#8220;R.J. SYNNOW&#8221; built by Ryder Synnott faced great hardship due to the wind. Finally, the &#8220;GALAXY&#8221; made quite a statement with its sustainable design that ultimately lead Doug Day to victory as the field\u2019s fastest boat. These boats not only survived the challenge but also exemplified how innovation and creativity can turn humble materials into triumphant vessels on the water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our 2024 contest winner were:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Fastest Boat \u2013 THE GALAXY piloted by Doug Day<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Most Creative Boat \u2013 OUTATIME piloted by Cameron<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Most Spectacular Sinking \u2013 NAG piloted by Lilly and Ashley Vanest<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Other participating boats were:<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>WILD STAR piloted by Madison Litt<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>R.J. SYNNOW piloted by Ryder Synnott<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>We would like to thank all of our racers and give special mention to family and friends who helped construct or supported the boats that raced on Saturday. We would also like to thank our volunteer judges, photographers and our fire\/EMS service personnel who provided safety overwatch during the race.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to the above, we also need to thank NOPEC who awarded us a special community events grant that ultimately made this event and our Cardboard Boat Workshops possible. Last but not least, we would also like to thank Todd and Rick of the Ashtabula Aarons who provided us with all of the construction cardboard utilized at our workshops.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Again, thank you for your participation and we truly look forward to seeing you again next year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Roaming Shores Police Department.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you would like to see this and other community events continue, be sure to check out the Friends of Roaming Shores PD Reverse Raffle fundraiser being held on August 10th. Tickets are available at Village Hall, the RRA office and at the Marina.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-medium\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.roamingshores.org\/RRA1\/wp-content\/uploads\/24-cardboard-boat-races-500x281.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-39233\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.roamingshores.org\/RRA1\/wp-content\/uploads\/24-cardboard-boat-races-500x281.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.roamingshores.org\/RRA1\/wp-content\/uploads\/24-cardboard-boat-races-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.roamingshores.org\/RRA1\/wp-content\/uploads\/24-cardboard-boat-races-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.roamingshores.org\/RRA1\/wp-content\/uploads\/24-cardboard-boat-races-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.roamingshores.org\/RRA1\/wp-content\/uploads\/24-cardboard-boat-races-600x337.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.roamingshores.org\/RRA1\/wp-content\/uploads\/24-cardboard-boat-races-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.roamingshores.org\/RRA1\/wp-content\/uploads\/24-cardboard-boat-races.jpg 1698w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 85vw, 500px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-medium\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.roamingshores.org\/RRA1\/wp-content\/uploads\/24-cardboard-boat-races-2-500x281.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-39232\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.roamingshores.org\/RRA1\/wp-content\/uploads\/24-cardboard-boat-races-2-500x281.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.roamingshores.org\/RRA1\/wp-content\/uploads\/24-cardboard-boat-races-2-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.roamingshores.org\/RRA1\/wp-content\/uploads\/24-cardboard-boat-races-2-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.roamingshores.org\/RRA1\/wp-content\/uploads\/24-cardboard-boat-races-2-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.roamingshores.org\/RRA1\/wp-content\/uploads\/24-cardboard-boat-races-2-600x337.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.roamingshores.org\/RRA1\/wp-content\/uploads\/24-cardboard-boat-races-2-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.roamingshores.org\/RRA1\/wp-content\/uploads\/24-cardboard-boat-races-2.jpg 1698w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 85vw, 500px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-16018d1d wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/photos.app.goo.gl\/mvX9kjj84ACUd8MD8\">Boat Races Album<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Jason Scribben Memorial Volleyball Tournament<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-medium\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"375\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.roamingshores.org\/RRA1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024-jason-scribben-volleyball-375x500.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-39235\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.roamingshores.org\/RRA1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024-jason-scribben-volleyball-375x500.jpg 375w, https:\/\/www.roamingshores.org\/RRA1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024-jason-scribben-volleyball-112x150.jpg 112w, https:\/\/www.roamingshores.org\/RRA1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024-jason-scribben-volleyball-150x200.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.roamingshores.org\/RRA1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024-jason-scribben-volleyball-600x800.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.roamingshores.org\/RRA1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024-jason-scribben-volleyball.jpg 716w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 375px) 85vw, 375px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Also on Saturday, the Annual Jason Scribben Memorial Volleyball Tournament was held.
