KIDS ACTIVITIES 2 OF 4 – HILLBILLY SHOOTOUT

Introducing the most exciting and fun shooting gallery around.. The Hillbilly Shootout!

Meet Billy and Bob the awesome Hillbilly’s which have extremely wobbly teeth.  Using your foam ball cannons partner up with a mate and see who can knock their teeth out first.  This game is great for all ages, however we ask parents supervise kids under 5 years as they may need a hand.

The ball cannons work on a reverse vacuum technology and are very safe as well as fun.  The Aim is to knock out all your Hillbilly’s teeth the fastest before your competitor does!

KIDS ACTIVITIES – 1OF 4 – JUMPING CASTLE

With so much going on over the weekend of Lockyer Powerfest, it’s hard to imagine that kids will get bored from watching the action on the water with powerboats, jet sprint boats, wakeboard demonstrations, dragon boats and a huge array of static displays – including street rods, classic and customs, off road vehicles, drag racing cars, speedway cards, racing boats, ski-racing boats, offshore racing boats and new performance skiboats.
