Summer is just around the corner and for many of us that means spending lazy days at the lake skiing, tubing, or just chilling on the boat.

Ideally boats are designed and engineered to float, right

But what if those boats are made of concrete,will they still float?

This Saturday, April 9 at Buffalo Springs Lake the Texas Tech Engineering Department concrete canoe team along with teams from across Texas and New Mexico compete to prove they can make boats made from concrete can, and will float (hopefully).

So get out early to catch the races then stay and enjoy a day with your friends and family at "The Lake."

Races will start between 8:30 and 9:00
