Jimi is the parent volunteer who stepped up last year to provide Soapbox with Derbynet - electronic scoring, scheduling and public access.
Jimi took a Club Scout Miniature Car racing program, added St Albert needs including handhelds for scoring and the network behind for a real sized Soapbox race. This Jimi year added public access on their phone info on who is racing when and in what lane - real time updates.
The St Albert Soapbox Derbynet system is the result of the time and talent of Jimi Darke. Jimi saw the need and involved DerbyNet to address the St Albert Soapbox Derby scheduling, race timing and results and information to the public on displays and handhelds. A top notch full function solution.
Jimi is based locally and has an e-commerce digital shelf tag company, Sovereign Shelf, focusing on small/medium businesses - automatic price changes that appear on the tag in moments, pick-by-light order fulfillment and will-call digital signage.
You can see the system in action with about 1500 tags at Delta Art on 118th Ave in Edmonton.
