Pinewood Derby
2025 District and Council Pinewood Derby Events are underway
About the Pinewood Derby
Partnered with a parent or guardian, Cub Scouts work together, strengthening bonds and building confidence – and their custom race cars! They begin with an official Pinewood Derby Race Car kit, then create a design, 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 Cub Scout Pack's Pinewood Derby. It is 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. To add a new twist to the Cub Scout tradition, several of the district events and the Council event will be under Blacklights.
