- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 09 May, 2026 at 01:00 pm (-05:00)
- **Event Description**: Do you have a street legal golf cart or UTV?

We are looking for people with golf carts or UTVs who want to have some fun!

The Genoa Area Chamber of Commerce is excited to introduce a brand-new event the Back Road Derby Drive designed to bring our community together, collect food donations for Rooted for Good, and raise funds to support our free community events like Waddle on the Riverbank featuring the Great Genoa Duck Race, Celebrate the Season, and to bring Santa Claus to town throughout the month of December.



What is the Back Road Derby Drive?

It’s two events in one! Participants with street legal golf carts or UTVs are invited to decorate their vehicle, dress to match their theme, and pick a song to show off their style!

Drivers will parade along a back road block while the community cheers them on from the sidelines. A panel of judges will select the top 10 finalists based on creativity, theme, decoration and crowd appeal. The finalists will then drive individually through the Vet's Club parking lot where one of our community’s most creative and entertaining rides will take home the title Champion of the Back Roads for the year. The top 6 will be selected and be offered a VIP spot in the Genoa Day’s Parade! Once the parade competition wraps up, the excitement continues as the top 6 vehicles also get to compete in the Genoa Derby! 



How will we have the Genoa Derby?

The chosen 6 golf carts or UTV's will be the jockeys with their carts. The jockeys will take turns rolling jumbo dice to see how fast they can get to the finish line. Spectators can “bet” by placing their chips on who they think will win the race. Odds will be given and the excitement will grow as everyone awaits to see who will win the Back Road Cup. 



Come out and help us create a brand-new Genoa tradition!
