Pack 451 Pinewood Derby

Who?

Tigers, Wolves, Bears and Webelos are divided by rank.  The three fastest cars in each rank are given awards and race in the Pack Finals where trophies are awarded to the three fastest cars.  Additionally each rank is awarded one "Best in Show" award.  The more creative the car ... the better.

Hot dogs and snacks will be sold.

One last chance for graphite right before the final heat.
Finals Start at 1:00PM

Todd, graphite your car at 12:30PM. No Excuses This Year.

Racers can register their cars any time up to the time of their particular race.  Please make sure to have your car registered prior to your race time.  All cars must stay in the church up at the head table until their race time.

The top three cars from each rank will then race in the finals.  Only these cars must remain in the church between races.  Additional graphite may be applied just before the finals.   


Who Builds The Car?
The Scout should build his own car with appropriate parental supervision! Parents may enter their own car in the Kids of All Ages race.

 

I Need HELP?

Can I enter more than one car?

Any scout that wants to enter one car to race and one more "creative" car to be judged only for the "Best of Show" category may do so.

Anything Else?

HAVE FUN!!!  Race day is always a big party.
Ask your parents to help you do a search for "Pinewood Derby" on the Internet. You'll find all kinds of useful information and pictures of really cool cars.

Parents:
We need volunteers! If you'd like to help (decorations, inspection, pit crew, refreshments, awards), contact the Race Chairman..
