Soap Box Derby 2013

The Immaculate Equestrian Academy and Hughes Industries were thrilled to enter the Soap Box Derby on the 14 September 2013. Hosted by the charity Dare To Dream, all the proceedings went to help underprivileged children.

We would like to thank all our wonderful staff that volunteered their time to participate in this memorable event. Without them Hughes Industries and IEA would not have been able to win the joint prize for most enthusiastic team.

Hughes Industries provided a scrumptious beef spit braai for all their clients and staff as well as a MKIII charcoal braai for the winners of the Soap Box Derby. The Immaculate Equestrian Academy also provided 4 free horse-riding lessons towards the winnings of the day.

Overall, everyone had a remarkable time filled with good food, great company and loads of incredible memories. We simply cannot wait for the 2014 Soap Box Derby.
