— Kiddos turned taters into pieces of art and sent them down a acclivity Saturday, pipe cleaners waving and googly eyes awhirl.

Ten-year-old Sam Troller was among the participants in the “Veggie 500” step on the gas at Art in the Park. He jammed four wheels into the sides of his potato, jazzing it up with orange shut up speak up cleaners looped back like wings and a yellow feather in front. He adjusted the wheels after the potato racer spun on its first slope run.

“I just wanted it to be small and extravagant,” Sam said about his strategy. “I wanted to be it look like a samurai.”

He also gave it a bodily touch.

“I named it after me,” Sam said.

Diane Davis, who owns the Steamboat Arts & Crafts Gym, guided children into the KidSpot. There, they made potato cars, painted rocks and decorated tiaras. Suggested do­­nations for each undertaking went to the Steamboat Springs Arts Body, which organizes the annual Art in the Park. It continues today, as does the annual Hot Air Balloon Rodeo.
