The KHFI Raft Race
Every year, local radio station KHFI sponsors a raft race on Town Lake,
Austin's downtown "lake" (actually the Colorado River). For the
last four years, the best of show awards have gone to Origin Systems and
Custom Creation for their dramatic and spectacular entries.
In 1994, the float took the form of a large castle, accompanied by a dragon
and a dragon-slayer. Take a look at The '94
Raft Race
In 1995, the float was a five-car train, along with train robbers and a
marshal to save the day. Take a peek at The
'95 Raft Race
You can see a more ambitious project involving some of the same people
at Britannia Manor '94, or you can
