Float Your Boat

July 2, 2022 @ 11:00 am 1:00 pm

This is a drop-in interpretive program.

Can you build a boat that will float and hold the most mass? Come get together with us to see if you can design a cargo boat that will hold the most cargo. Understand how the “Laker” ships transport their loads of iron ore through the shipping lanes of Door County.

Look for the table set up in the picnic area (Lot 3).


All programs are free, but a state park admission sticker is required on all vehicles.
Some programs are weather related, so check with the park if you have any questions.

Newport State Park, 475 County Road NP, Ellison Bay, WI 54210 Ph. 920-854-2500
