WHAT IS THE PINEWOOD DERBY?

Partnered with a parent or guardian, Cub Scouts work together, strengthening bonds and building confidence – and their own custom race cars! They begin with an official Pinewood Derby Race Car kit, then create a design, then carve it from the wood block provided in the kit, and detail it with paint, decals and other accessories, and perfect strategies to compete in their pack’s own Pinewood Derby. It’s s a wonderful learning experience centered on teamwork, ingenuity and sportsmanship – all for the thrill of the race and a lifetime of great memories to share with fellow racers young and old.

PINEWOOD DERBY CHAMP CAMP

The Dan Beard Council Scout Shop’s Champ Camp event will be held on Saturday, January 29, 2022. Scouts will learn how to race like a pro by getting expert advice on tools, weights, and accessories.
