Seifenkistenrennen - Solarmobil

Submitted by Irmgard on

 

Wir organisieren ein Seifenkistenrennen mit möglichst geringem Aufwand. Dies kann die Teenies und Kinder anspornen, ihre eigenen Seifenkisten zu bauen.

Basic Idea / Goal:
Soapbox racing? Yes!

This is how contacts are made with village and neighbourhood residents and a relationship of trust can grow.

Duration / Period / Effort:
The race takes place on a Saturday.

Suitable for:
Teens and children in a village or neighbourhood

Materials Needed:
See under Design

Costs:
We ask from the participants a contribution of about Fr. 10.-, are still looking for some sponsors and run a festive economy at which a profit is generated. With 50 participants the income and expenses amount to approx. 3'000.- each.

Execution of the project:
With an organization team, the race day is prepared.

  • Responsible for race procedure
    They organize traffic boards, straw bales, fencing of the race track, timing, starting ramp, public address system and people for the actual race day.
  • Responsible for Festwirtschaft
    You organize benches, tables, food, drinks and staff for the sale. No alcohol will be served
  • Responsible for office work
    Authority contacts, permit requests, registrations, advertising the event in the parish newsletter of the local newspaper and with posters/handouts, start list (there is a lot to do), evaluation and ranking, purchase of prizes/gifts

    The race will be held in four categories (separated by age group). There will be a trial run for each participant as well as two applicable running times. Rules and regulations should be drawn up, including the penalty point system.

Important notes:
Bad weather variants: Either the race will be cancelled or a rescheduled date must be set in advance.

SOLARMOBILE

The race could be done with solar mobiles. A group of the Blue Cross in Baselbiet has built a solar mobile itself.
