About this Event

Untapped Potential 2025

Celebrating 30 Years of Building Boats & Launching Lives

*EARLY BIRD TICKETS ON SALE NOW UNTIL Sept 8!

You're invited to an evening of celebration, community, and impact! Skip the black tie—Untapped Potential is our laid-back take on the traditional fundraising gala. Join us for a joyous night filled with great food, live music, local brews, and meaningful connection—all in support of Urban Boatbuilders' hands-on youth development programs.

Enjoy tasty bites from Kham Fu Dee & All Square, tap into the rhythm of local live music from the Teddy Holidays, and grab a refreshing beer or beverage while you browse our silent auction—featuring beautiful boats, stunning woodcraft, unique experiences, and more. You’ll also get a chance to hear from some of the young people of UBB and learn how your support helps launch them towards brighter futures. Whether you're a long time supporter, a past paddle making class participant, a fan of our youth-built canoes, or just learning about UBB, there's a place for everyone at Untapped Potential!

30 Hour Boat Raffle: To kick off our 30th anniversary, we built an entire Urban Traveler canoe in less than 30 hours back in April, and you can have a chance to win it! This special canoe will be raffled off at Untapped Potential. Purchase a raffle ticket for $10/each and be entered to win. You do not have to be present at the event to win. Contact [email protected] to purchase.
