The Pinewood Derby is all about the Scouts! While adults can help with power tools, the design and assembly should come from the Scout. We want every car to be a reflection of their creativity and hard work. If adults want to showcase their skills, the exhibition race is perfect for you!

We can’t wait to see everyone’s cars and cheer on our Scouts! If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out. 

Breakfast items and pizza will be available, managed by our Tiger den as part of our annual tradition.
