The demolition derby – an annual tradition – wrapped up Park County Fair festivities on Saturday night. 

The derby brought around 20 competitors and a packed arena to the Park County Fairgrounds and dished out more than $14,500 in prizes.

The big winner of the night was Trent Gillett, who took home $3,000 for winning the limited weld finals. Gillett was also named the overall mad dog, taking home an additional $250 for that honor.

Second place in the limited weld went to Neil Moore, earning him $1,500; Tyler Showalter finished in third place and took home $750.

In the trucks, Kelly Herrick avenged a second place finish from last year, finishing in first place and taking home $1,500.

Sean Moore placed second, earning $750, and Matt Lennon placed third to take home $250.

In the women’s compact, Kalina Vaughn finished in first place — taking home $1,000.

Mad dog for the trucks was awarded to Herrick.

A split second decision was made and second place was called a tie between Jordan Gibson and Crandall Lennon, who each earned $400. The mad dog was split between all three competitors.

In the chain-up competition, Hadley Mehling placed first — earning $1,500.

A second-place prize of $750 went to Justin Howe, and third place went to Brad Poley for $250.
