Sand Fest Underway Today..............


and it got started with a "Treasure Hunt" for kids 12 and under. They had a large tarp spread out and a whole bunch of coins and washers were spread around and covered with sand. They had a Lemans start and the kids dove into the sand. Whenever a washer was found the finder was able to trade it in for a nice prize. They had remote control cars, shirts, hats and some other nice stuff for the kids. The "12 year old" in the 4th picture was certainly a "large" one (she was taller than I am). Cassidy found two washers and gave one to her brother. I think Cassidy got a shirt and Trace picked out a baseball cap. Becky tried to talk him out of it; but, no sale. I gave Cassidy an $100 bill, told her to dig around in the sand a little bit and then jump up and yell "Look What I Got". She agreed and then chickened out and wouldn't do it.

Next event at 1130 is an "Adult Kid" relay race. You have to have a quad of 90cc or less and the riders race around some barrels. Complete one lap and then change riders. I think they'll race around the barrels about 5 times. Cassidy is signed up with Lori and I think they are going out to practice right now. I think Trace and his Mom are going to team up unless Dad talks Trace into letting him ride. We need to scout around and find a 90 pound adult to race with Trace. It outta be fun to watch.

Will update today's events with pics of the relay race a little later on this afternoon. Stay tuned.
