"The purpose of the Pinewood Derby is to help the Cub Scout build a team relationship with their parent or helper, experience the sense of accomplishment and the excitement of competition, learn Win/Lose good sportsmanship, and to have fun."

Registration (CLOSED)
All Packs need to register prior to the race. No individual registrations will be taken. All Scouts must register as part of a Pack. The registration form is included in the 2012 Rules that can be found on this website. Please make sure all racers are familiar with the 2012 race rules as some modifications have been made this year. All Pack registration forms should be submitted with payment by Jan 15, 2012.
Pack Volunteers
It is required that each participating Pack provide 1 volunteer to work the district race event. The volunteer must be available to work the entire event. Volunteers from a Pack may share the responsibility and work in shifts, however, it is the responsibility of each volunteer to make sure they have a replacement before leaving the event, and their replacement is trained in the duties they need to perform.
