Urban Boat Builders

March 31, 2010

Students at Humboldt Secondary School have spent the past several months up to their elbows in sawdust and laquer, as they have worked with the folks from Urban Boat Builders to create two seaworthy crafts. This is the second year of the partnership between UBB and Humboldt, and both years have been a wonderful experience for all involved. When building a boat together, students learn how to communicate, work as a team, and they learn a valuable craft. And there’s nothing like seeing a big, beautiful thing that you made with your own two hands.
