From the June 25, 1992 edition of The Wayne Herald:
Everyone enjoys wet bathtub races
It wasn't pretty and it was anything but dry, but it sure was fun.
That's one possible description of the bath tub races during the Wayne county Old Settler's activities in Winside Saturday.
The winning entry was The Water Balloons team composed of Doug Shelton, Richard Behmer, Mick Topp and Dan Jaeger. The bath tub
team won with a total score of .5115.
Finishing in second place was the Class of '73, which included Dean Krueger, Dave Jaeger, Brian Hoffman and Scott Deck. The Class of '73
took second place with a combined score of .5650.
Many others participated including two seven-year-olds Brandon Suehl and Shane Jaeger, of Winside, who were very primed to throw water
balloons during the event.
