The AWANA program at Forest Lake Baptist Church held its annual AWANA Grand Prix Saturday.
AWANA clubbers designed and made their own cars, with some help from a pit crew who helped contenders streamline their cars and have them weigh in within required limits.
The Grand Prix had an Amateur Speed Division, as well as a “professional” competition between adults who wanted to compete as well.
The pine wood cars were raced on a track that church members have perfected over the years, which instantly displays the cars placing. time and speed, which are projected on a screen.
Hot dogs, hot pretzels and nachos were enjoyed, and a devotional was given by Pastor Ken Young and Matt Fearnley
