Central Florida Soap Box Derby

Soap Box Derby is a youth gravity racing program for boys and girls ages 7 to 20. It is a unique program that encourages close adult-youth activities while building and racing the car.

The dream begins when the idea of building and racing a Soap Box Derby car becomes a reality. The construction of the gravity race car reinforces the importance of setting and completing goals while developing traits such as self-confidence, perseverance and craftsmanship.

The youth is encouraged to do as much of the work as his/her skill level permits. Building and racing a derby race car is a lot of fun and a rewarding experience for both youth and advisor. The time spent together helps build a strong bond and becomes an enjoyable shared experience.

Regardless of the outcome of a race, each youngster is a winner as they have shared a memorable experience with their advisor. It is a project that both will cherish the memories the rest of their lives.
