A sculpture celebrating the golden anniversary of American motocross was on display at Washougal Motocross Park. The monument is filled with artwork from championship programs, ticket stubs, Hi-Flyer trading cards and other mementos.

From the young girls selling lemonade and cookies near the entrance to Washougal Motocross Park before 8 a.m. Saturday, to the families throwing footballs, grilling dinner and waving to passersby in the parking lot 11 hours later, there were many sights and sounds to experience at the Peterson CAT Washougal National.

People who arrived in time to see the motocross riders practice that morning were able to avoid traffic woes on Washougal River Road.
