Pinewood Derby!

posted Jan 5, 2012 6:10 AM by Jason Sommerville

The pinewood derby is scheduled for Jan. 14th (not 21st as some sources have printed). If you're having any difficulty completing your cars, please contact Jason or Bob, as stated in the pinewood derby rules and instructions. I'm attaching those rules to the post below. Check-in will begin at 9:30 and close at 10:00. A light breakfast and pizza lunch will be provided.

Uniforms

I have added links (see Links) to the uniform inspection sheets so that parents can find the proper location for insignia on the uniforms. Please don't get worried if you don't have the official hat and pants. A proper shirt is sufficient, though many kids do also have the den-appropriate neckerchief.

So far, we have not been successful in getting hand-me-down uniforms from the Troop 208. But, we will continue to look for used shirts. If you have an older boy (Webelos?) who has outgrown a shirt, please consider donating it to the pack so that we can pass it on to a new boy.
