Soapbox Challenge 2018

On Saturday 8 September 2018 Netheravon held its first Soap Box Challenge.  Racing began at 11 am with two Soap Boxes at a time racing down the steep grass bank of the lovely setting of Cormayles House adjacent to All Saints Church in Netheravon.  Each race only lasted up to approximately 20 seconds so it came down to 1/10 & 1/100 of a second to win!  Some of the Soap Boxes entered were “Flow” or the Rocket from Wavin Chippenham – “Paddy Power” by Paddy Jones & his troop – “Really Good Value” the RGV bath and “Barrel of Fun” by Tig from Netheravon    The weather was perfect and the Races were really fun, although there were a few scary moments  there were no serious crashes or injuries  The winner or Champion of the Hill was Theo in the “Wheelbarrow” Soapbox.
