Yes, it’s that time again – time for the Scatacook District Pinewood Derby! All Cub Scout Packs in the Scatacook District are invited to send their fastest cars to compete in this Race-for-the-title event.
Who may enter:
- Scouts who have won 1st , 2nd, or 3rd place of their RANK within their Pack’s 2023 Pinewood Derby (i.e. the fastest 3 Lion scouts, the fastest 3 Tiger Scouts, etc.). If your Pack’s race also hasoverall champions outside of the ranks, they are also eligible to race. Webelos 1+2 may both race; they will be combined at the District Derby.
- Scouts who have won a “Best Design” type of prize at their Pack’s 2023 Pinewood Derby are also eligible to compete!
- If your Pack did not conduct a race this year, please ask your Cubmaster to contact Mr. Barnabo at chris@spagnet.com and join us for the race.
