One of the riders in the Youth Power Wheels Demo speeds his way back toward the action in his John Deere mower-style Power Wheels. Moses Lake Demo Derby organizer Aaron Schrodt said while it can be difficult to organize a group of children in an event like this, it’s important that the drivers have a fun time.

MOSES LAKE — Day two of the Moses Lake Demo Derby kicked off with a special exhibition, the Youth Power Wheels Demo, just before the main event. “They love it,” said Mackenzie Cafferty, whose children participated in the event. “They don’t get to run into things at home, so it’s better for them to come out and run into other kids and have a good time.” Cafferty said she got her two children, Wesley and Hadley, involved in the Power Wheels Demo Derby through her father, Stan Cafferty, who’s on the board of directors with Moses Lake Roundup and is heavily involved in the events that take place at the Grant County Fair. She said she enjoys having her children involved and staying with the family traditions.
