What is Soap Box Derby Racing? Fun for the Whole Family! Origins Soap Box Derby began over 50 years ago when a newspaper reporter from Dayton, Ohio wrote a story about some kids racing down a hill in carts made from soap boxes and crates. A few years later, the newspaperman had organized the race into an event that is now a part of American tradition. Family Fun From building the car, to weekend racing, to competing for National Championships - soap box derby is definitely a family activity. The kids compete, the parents coach, and relatives cheer them all on. It's also a great way to meet super people from across the United States. Many families stay involved long after their racing days are over to talk with friends, tell old stories, or to assist a new family. Sportsmanship When asked, one of the most frequent benefits drivers aquire in derby is sportsmanship. Drivers often make friendships with their fellow competitors and treat them with respect if they win and wish them luck if they lose. Getting Involved Boys and girls ages 8-18 are generally eligible to compete in soap box derby races held all over the country.

Seconds later, Rae won her eighth race of the day the championship round of the fourth annual Soap Box Derby and a trip to Akron, Ohio, for the national soap Box Derby finals.

>Youth in Motion-Soap Box Derby Youth in Motion Soap Box Derby The soap box derby is a gravity racing program for boys and girls ages 8 through 17 years old. This is a unique program that encourages close youth adult activities while building a race car. The dream begins when the idea of building a car and racing a Soap Box derby car become a reality. The construction of the gravity race car reinforces the importance of setting and completing goals while developing traits such as self teaching the driver proper use of tools. The youth is encouraged to do as much of the work as his/her skill level permits. Building and racing a race car is a lot of fun and a rewarding experience for both youth and adult. Regardless of the outcome of a race, each youth is a winner as they have shared a memorable experience with their adult. Get started by checking in with the Steamboat Springs Parks and Rec Department at 245 Howelsen Parkway (next to the ice rink)for more information and registration forms. The event normally gets kicked off in early March when kids start building their cars.

95. Paradigm Shift - Artists Soap Box Derby The Artists soap box derby. On August 23, 1998, The Donskoj Gallery in Kingston, New York sponsored the Third Annual Artists soap box derby. http://users.bestweb.net/~kali93/oct98/soap.htm

The Artists Soap Box Derby Photo Essay by Brendan Merritt (text by Philip H. Farber) On August 23, 1998, The Donskoj Gallery in Kingston, New York sponsored the Third Annual Artists Soap Box Derby. Like other soap box derbies, the event featured vehicles that rolled down a steep slope, the lower end of Broadway in Kingston's historic Rondout district. The difference in this event was that speed and even maneuverability were not the important criteria. Crazed vehicles created by area artists careened at great speed (or, in the case of some, at a snail's pace) down the road while photographers swarmed to capture the weirdness on film. No one was run over, but one lobster was reported to have been eaten. The event opened with a Gypsy Procession that featured the band Bardo Motel and Kinetic- Percussion Necktie Fashions by Marilyn Stablein. There were sixteen entries to the competition, some of which are depicted below: Sheila (the name of the vehicle, not the driver) The Full Moon Bubbles Wrenchasaurus Table Lamp The Dump Nest The Dump Nest on a roll The Winner by a wrench The Loser (Rondout Reject Award), Early Bird Special
