Delta’s soap box derby a second-annual success
45 kids competed to be the fastest soap box racer in the municipality
Delta’s second annual soap box racing derby saw 45 kids race down 6th Avenue in Tsawwassen on June 10. Go Green Pest Control’s Rat Rod Roxy cart, a blue 1930s Buick-inspired soap box racer, won best cart design. In total, more than 1,500 people came out to watch this year’s event, which raised over $15,000 for the Rotary Club of Tsawwassen. According to announcer Rick Lewall, this year’s event was a big improvement over the first derby thanks to bigger wheels and better brakes.
