The Columbia Cup takes over the Tri-Cities area this weekend, as the world's top hydros hit the water.

Race fans will get an up close look at the boats in a public viewing at WSU Tri-Cities from 4-7 p.m. It is a chance to meet the teams, win some prizes and learn about the bio-fuel technology that keeps the boats going.
