It was anchors away in Marysville Friday afternoon where more than 20 kids made a splash on Ellis Lake.
The 15th Annual Cardboard Boat Races were put on by the Marysville Exchange Club and the City of Marysville.
Organizers say the event is the perfect start to the Fourth of July weekend and it also teaches the kids a lesson or two.
All participants took home a bag filled with prizes. First place winners were also awarded gift certificates donated by several local businesses.
