Pole Vault – Street Vault 2009
The Flying Dragons Pole Vault Club of Pekin is returning to the festival again this year to host a very unique sporting event. Athletes of all ages will be competing in this street version of the well-known track and field event.
Think you have what it takes to compete? A $10 entry fee is all that is required to join the fun. You will get three chances to make each height.
If you would prefer to keep your feet on the ground, stop by anyway to check out the action. The Street Vault runs from 4 - 9 PM on Friday and 3 - 8 PM on Saturday in the outfield of the baseball diamond in the park.
