PURPOSE: Our 1st annual Minor Miners Ore Cart Races is open to kids aged 13-17, so to make lots of happy family memories in between the adult ore cart races.

HOW IT WORKS: This is a team sport. Three kids will be assigned a group and will race the Junior Ore Carts one-way for 75-feet.

• Assigned “Tommyknocker” grabs one 10-lb sandbag and puts it into the cart, jumps into the cart, and then the team races to the finish line (cart cannot start to move until Tommyknocker and sandbag are fully into cart)!
• Two teams race against each other on Saturday in between the adult ore cart races and continue through an elimination process.
• Number of entrants will determine the elimination process.

REGISTRATION & ENTRY FEES: FREE! Kids check-in immediately after the parade on Saturday at the Ore Cart Race Track
