The awards ceremony banquet for Badger Kart Club was held last Saturday at the Sheraton in Brookfield. The place was packed. The same family atmosphere at the track was present here. It was nice to see the drivers not wearing their racing suits. Some of the boys wore ties and the girls wore cute dresses. A prayer followed by a buffet dinner officially kicked off the ceremony. The awards was the longest part for there were sixteen classes and several other special awards were given in between.

The trophies were impressive and there were lots of prizes and raffles. Connor received his trophy for winning second place in points in the Animal Sportsman class. He also received prizes for placing second in the Junior Summer Series. He also received recognition along with the others who had perfect attendance for the year.
After the awards ceremony, the lights went off, the disco lights turned on and music played. The kids stormed the dance floor. Tommy, who we thought would fall asleep halfway through the ceremony, was awake the entire time and joined one of his friends who was first on the dance floor. The other kids joined and they just danced on and on. My boys would have danced all night but we had to go. Grandma and Grandpa were both getting tired and we still had to have our pictures taken outside. (Note: sweaty kids in the family picture.) It was way past ten when we left. Next year, we'll get a room and let the boys dance all night long. Just a thought.
