The Round Hill Downhill Derby is an unofficial, unsanctioned soapbox derby style race. The rules are looser and the cars are creative and the kids just have fun! Additional heats will be run for scooters and skateboards too.

The Round Hill - Down Hill Derby is a once-a-year opportunity for you to race down a closed off street course in The Town of Round Hill! Racers will run multiple heat races and ribbons will be awarded to all participants. First, second and third place medals will be awarded for the following categories:

Scooters: 10 and under; above 10

Skateboards: 10 and under; above 10

Derby Cars: Each car will take two runs. The car with the third best average time from the two races will be awarded third place medal. Top two average times will race again for first and second place. Second place receives a medal; first place a trophy.

Cars will be on display at the Town Park prior to the race and ballots will be cast for the "Best in Show" and "Best Newcomer." Cars need to be dropped across at the Town Park by 10 a.m. on the day of the Festival to be considered for these awards.
