A more-than-unique boat race held on the Delaware River on Saturday drew more than 300 people to the picturesque shoreline at the West End Beach in Port Jervis, N.Y. With boats made only of cardboard, the first-annual Delaware River Cardboard Boat Regatta and Beach Party, brainchild of local resident Laura Meyer, is a time-trial race, pitting 12 entries against each other and the clock.

What was your first job as a journalist?

Interestingly, I was hired to write an opinion column for a small paper, and everything grew from there.
