No one ever said being a part of the annual Camas Days' Bathtub Races was easy. The team pictured here spilled more than a little frigid water while navigating the already-rainy race course at the 2015 Camas Days. The races pit teams of three -- with one person sitting inside the bathtub in a pool of freezing cold water while two other team members push the tub down Fourth Avenue in historic, downtown Camas.
