SOUTHERN OREGON — The DeBoer family is adding a new venture to their belt, publishing a children’s book about racing and hard work.

Derek DeBoer, manager of TC Chevy in Ashland, is publishing and releasing the book on April 30th.

The Fast Life, Let’s Go Racing book was written by his wife Brooke and illustrated by his daughter, Paige.
