People are gathering at the finish line for the Fifth Annual Great Raft Race over at River West Festival Park.

This is the fifth annual raft race in Tulsa and organizers say over 100 homemade rafts launched Saturday morning from the Case Community Park over in Sand Springs. If you haven’t had a chance to go to the event, there is still time. The festivities are going on until 5 pm on Saturday evening.

There are live bands, food trucks, and a lot more.
