Sail away at our Senior Regatta

If you’re 55+, handy with cardboard, duct tape and trash bags, we want you! Here’s your chance to channel your inner sailor, get creative and show your competitive side! The Friendship Heights Village Center is teaming up with the Wisconsin Place Recreation Center to build a cardboard boat to compete in the Senior Cardboard Boat Regatta at the Martin Luther King Swim Center on Wednesday, March 12, from 10:15 a.m. to noon. The county will host an information session on Tuesday, January 7, at 11 a.m., at Wisconsin Place. Eight building sessions will follow every Tuesday starting Jan. 14, from 10:30 to 11:30 a.m. There is no fee to participate but you must commit to attending certain sessions–please review details in the Village News. Registration is required. To reserve a spot, please click on the Sign-Up for Programs link at the top of this page. For more information, please call the Village Center at 301-656-2797.
