The Hydroplane & Raceboat Museum hosts its Hydro Fever open house on Saturday, May 24, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
The event culminates Museum Week Northwest.
The public is invited to see their favorite vintage hydroplanes. The museum has one of the largest collection of Gold Cup-winning hydroplanes in the world, including the likes the Slo-mo-shun V, Bill Muncey’s Atlas Van Lines, Chip Hanauer’s Atlas Van Lines and the Griffon Budweiser.
Memorabilia vendors will be selling vintage buttons, pins and programs.
A live auction begins at noon of rare hydroplane memorabilia to benefit the museum. Kids can participate in Casper model boat races.
Food and drink are available for purchase.
The museum is at 5917 S. 196th St., Kent.
