GPS, Backup Cameras, Automatic Brakes...who needs that when there's Soapbox Derby!? Despite the fancy gadgets and distractions that technology has to offer, flying down Stave Lake Road fueled only by gravity, the Mission Soapbox Derby is a long time Mission tradition that still fulfills the need for speed and excitement. Being there, amongst the hay bale-lined roads and cheering on the grinning kids (and 2 adults) coming down the hill, there is a sense of family and comradery in the air. No matter how old this tradition is, the smiles on everyone's faces proves that good family fun never goes out of style.
