Race Day – 2013 Soap Box Derby

What a great day for a race!  The weather cooperated, and Adam drove the Kinsmen Soap Box car in the Kiwanis Kar Derby today.  There was a little car trouble on the final run, but Adam did get one good run down the hill.  It turned out to be a fun event, and Adam received a nice package of mementos.  Thanks to the Kiwanis and volunteers for putting on the event.

Soap Box Derby June 1, 2013

The Kinsmen Club of Brandon is running a Soap Box Derby car in the 2013 Kiwanis Kar Derby.  The Kiwanis is a very worthy organization serving people in Brandon, and by supporting their event we also have an opportunity to raise the profile of Kinsmen in Brandon.

Our driver is Adam Wiebe, son of one of the Brandon Kinsmen members.  Adam is really excited to be in the Derby, as can be seen in the attached photo.

The Derby is held on the Rideau Street hill next to Rideau Park.  Come out and see us race, it will be lots of fun!
