Since the beginning of time, kids have raced against each other on foot or with anything that had wheels.  For 73 years, the Soapbox Derby™* has been a great family sport that provides a healthy outlet for that competitive urge.  Dove Ranch proudly brings soapbox racing to the Bayfield/Durango community.  

Last year we had a beautiful day to showcase our 13 cars with drivers ranging in age from 8 to adult.  Concessions were provided by The Buck Stops Here and the Bayfield Lions Club.  Habitat for Humanity sponsored a beer garden and the Hounds of Purg, a group of 13-year-old kids from a Durango middle school  provided entertainment.  Approximately 400 spectators had great fun!!
