REGISTRATION OPENS MAY 1st!
REGISTRATION OPENS MAY 1ST!
Last year's event was such a hit and we're looking forward to an even bigger and better event this year! We've moved the race to Schey Park in Keenesburg, so the track will be longer and the number of racers will be doubled to 64, so the competion will be stiffer! You can count on this year's event lasting all day unlike last year's race, so plan accordingly! What hasn't changed from last year is the size of the trophy! We'll still be presenting a 6' tall trophy to the Grand Champion along with medals for the 1st, 2nd and 3rd place winners in each age bracket. The car show returns too, so get creative with those designs! Prizes will be awarded for MOST CREATIVE, MOST PATRIOTIC and (new this year) PEOPLE"S CHOICE!
This year's event is open to racers between the ages of 5 and 15 (age on the day of the race). The name, email address and phone number of the parent/guardian or sponsor of the racer is required! If you'll have more than one (1) child racing, please register each child separately.
Please direct any questions you may have to Tammy by email at twhitaker@SEWCchamber.com or on her mobile at 970-589-9018 between the hours of 7am and 6pm.
All racer registration fees include one (1) SBD branded t-shirt and souvenir photo license plate for the racer. Additional t-shirts and license plates may be purchased for family members, etc. at the time of registration. T-shirts and souvenir license plates will be available for purchase at the event at a higher cost.
