Video for the 208 Northern Maine Soap Box Derby Race has been posted...the winners imaged...but the rest of the scenes....they are parked here! Fun with the family in spirited down hill soap box derby race on "Derby Hill" at Community Park in Houlton Maine. Over 50 racers in this year's gravity race...up to 172 in previous years as new groups of kids enter the racing circuit from around Aroostook, Washington and Penobscot County Maine! The Houlton Maine race was the largest in the country 5 years running...pretty awesome for a town of 6700 and an area spread out over Northern Maine. It is an example of the kind of people..the type of parents that live here. Volunteers, family oriented...giving kids an event to be proud of with tons of local community spirit! Here are some of the highlights caught thru out the two day event!

Looks Like a Great Time
These are great photos; they really capture the feel of the event! I see that your office sponsored an entrant!
Had as much fun as the racers...2 of my kids went to Akron, Ohio...trying to help others get there too!
