The Aquatennial appeared to be canceled until a new group stepped in to save it. “No way we were letting this die,” one organizer said.

Hey, a boat race on a Minneapolis lake, but with something less likely to float than milk cartons? It's the ASCE Concrete Canoe Competition, today on Lake Hiawatha beach. 12 colleges were set to compete, including the U of M, St. Thomas, Mankato, Wisconsin and more! They waited out the rain and hail, but lightning finally cancelled the race. Such a bummer!
We know of another boat race this summer 😀 . . . If they can build one out of concrete, they can make one of milk cartons!
