Friendship Day Soap Box Derby excitement in downtown Salmon Arm

Traffic was heavy on the west end of Hudson Ave. Saturday afternoon as a crowd gathered to watch the Friendship Day Soap Box Derby.

Organized by Brody Paton and mom Michelle Kuster, the Sept. 22 event saw an excellent turnout in downtown Salmon Arm, with lots of racers of all ages and plenty of people lining the street to cheer them on. The event was a fundraiser for BC Children’s Hospital.
