- **Event Name**: Ocklawaha Raft Race
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 18 Jul, 2026 at 10:00 am (-04:00)
- **Event Description**: Details are in the flyer (event picture).

In 1976 a group of friends decided to celebrate the 200th birthday of America by building homemade rafts and floating down the Ocklawaha River on July 4th. It went for a couple of years, came back in the 90’s, back again in the 2000’s, and the last race was in 2019. This year marks America’s 250th birthday and we are here to bring the Raft Race back once again!

This is a great event to build something unique with your kid (or for your kids), get creative with your friends, or tackle a solo. It’s a great day on the water but without participants there is nothing to watch. We’d love to have sponsors to increase the prize winnings and help offset the cost of trophies and shirts but we need to see interest so please reach out sooner than later to show your interest. Tag your friends and potential raft partners and be sure to share. Feel free to contact me, Josh T Sevearance, with any questions.
