We guess people haven’t seen our posts or the banners around town about the Demo Derby Saturday night. We are super excited about this event. Lots of different vendors coming so it will be a great night to bring out the family. Gates open at 4. Derby starts at 6. It’s $10 for 16 & Over and $5 for kiddos 8-15. You can buy tickets ahead of time at the Parks & Recreation office at City Hall. Come on out and enjoy the fun!
