Pinewood Derby Race




This year the Gulf Coast Scout Council really went all out. They connected with the T.T. Wentworth Museum and each pack could have their race there on the "official track". This was great because it wasn't wood and so the lanes were more equal as far as straightness, and curve and all that. They had a fancy pants computer program as well! :) Jeffy's car did very well. He came in 3rd when we raced with 4 packs on our Raceday. (He would have gone to the district race anyhow since there are only 3 Bears in his pack.... But still!)

After the District Race in two weeks, The T.T. Wentworth Museum is going to have an entire display about pinewood derby cars. It will be neat to see. Jeffy is going to display his cars from this year and last year.


Dad is digging out some of the boys old cars so they can be placed on display as well.
