The Silly Boat Regatta is recognized as one of Nanaimo’s premier events with over 10,000 participants and spectators. Every year over 150 volunteers, community members and staff come together to make this family event an ongoing success. With a number of business sponsors leading the way, this event is the largest community fundraiser for the Nanaimo Child Development Centre. All funds raised from this event go toward providing specialized equipment, programs and services for children with developmental needs in our community.
