On your mark, get set, GO!
The GHPRD Recreation Team is turning Ritter Park into a racetrack on Saturday, August 22, 2026, to host a Power Wheels Derby!
Children ages 1-7 are invited to bring their personal Power Wheel and compete in a friendly race! Registration begins at 1:00 p.m. The competition will be divided into two age classes, ages 1-4 and 5-7 and a separate parent remote-controlled category competing separately. The first race will begin at 2:00 p.m.
Trophies will be awarded for 1st 2nd and 3rd place for both age classes and remote-controlled category. You can even enter a raffle to win a brand-new ride!
Registered Power Wheels must be original stock vehicles with no modified batteries. Helmets are required for participation. For more information, contact GHPRD Assistant Director Lauren Patrick at lpatrick@ghprd.org or call 304.696.5954
