First, let me thank the gang that took time to help!!
Steve, Dolly, Dion
Curtis and Brian
Jose and Izzy
Michael and Iulia
Dave and #1 Daughter
Lee, Chris, Millie (now a pro driver), and Libby
And my lady, Susan
We had 7 or 8 kids driving, and over 20 DD kids, and only had one melt down for one young'n that just wasn't sure he liked that ride. We also had one very slow crowding incident at the finish line that was actually kinda funny.
Everyone was on site by around 8, and we got the drivers practice runs done and got to racing about 9:30, and were done by noon. After a couple of runs, the tow guys got into a good rithym and got things moving pretty well. Fred Bear joined in, and was the "official" starter for several heats. Having our little radios helped as we could hear the Kiwanis and get ready for anything that came up. May have been good they couldn't hear us though!
As always, the kids were the stars of the show, and it was a day well spent! I think this is a project we can all be proud of, and it makes me proud to be part of this group!!
