Embedded Files
The Pinewood Derby is one of the biggest and most fun events for our Cub Scouts every year. It is a staple of the Cub Scout program, and a beloved tradition since 1953. Pinewood Derbies bring out scouts' creativity and teaches them about sportsmanship, craftsmanship, and engineering.
This year's theme is Heroes and Villains (Good and Evil)! Try and impress the judges with your most heroic or villainous pinewood derby car!
