Kids chopped, choked and bucked this weekend at the Jr. Buckley Log Show, back to its regular June schedule this year.
The main event for the Log Show is this weekend, but kids from 3 to 17 compete each year the weekend before in the same events as the adults. Altogether, 143 kids competed this year amid cheering parents and blustery weather. The really young ones, of course, only toss toy wooden axes.
Below are the scores for each event last weekend. (The Obstacle Pole Bucking event was cancelled for all ages due to the weather.)
You’ll notice that in some events, kids scored second or third despite getting the same time or points as another competitor. According to the Log Show organizers, if there is a tie in an event, the competitors perform a second run or throw-off to determine placement. Generally, the time or points shown are from the original run or throw.
