Pinewood Derby and Next Meeting

Hi everyone,

We will be running the Pinewood Derby on SATURDAY, January 27th at the Church.  We are doing this because with the number of boys we have, we don't have enough time to run the races on our normal Monday night meetings. 

Hopefully all the boys have a car kit.  If you still don't, please contact your Den Leader to get a car. 

Lots of info on the Pinewood Derby can be found on the blog.  When you go to our blog, you will notice a page titled Pinewood Derby.  A lot of the information here is generic, and not necessarily how we will run the races, but it gives a good idea. 

We are going to have races at staggered times.  The boys are welcome to come earlier or stay later and watch all the races, but the different times will help us run the races more efficiently.

Webelos 1 and 2 Scouts will start at 1:00 pm.

Bears will start at 2pm

Wolves and Tigers will start at 2:30.

We will have scales to weigh cars to make sure they meet the limits.  We will also have some repair items in case a car loses a wheel/axel, etc. 

Our next regular meeting will be this coming Monday night, January 22nd.  You can ask any last minute Derby questions then.

See you there!
Steve T
