Eighth Mile Drag Racing - behind the scenes
Forestburg proved to be a popular venue for the Eighth-Milers as the event returned for a second year. The volunteers worked tirelessly to make sure the racing went off smoothly. The same couldn’t be said of the weather, as a downpour cancelled racing on the first day of the two day event.
