Giant SUP Race:
We will hold a giant Giant SUP Race on Saturday at 4pm which will be free for people to take part. Be warned this may result in getting a little damp.
The showcase fun activity of the Bushcraft Show Watersports is the Card Board Box Boat Race where teams pit their wits and ingenuity against each other for the race in cardboard box rafts. The winner is the one to finish the course afloat in the fastest time but bragging rights may yet go to the team that makes us laugh the most.
