| 2009 Pinewood Derby
Well, another Derby has come and gone. The boys had a great time and there were many close races. Pack 103 would like to start by saying thank you to all the volunteers who stepped up and helped out, without their help the boys wouldn't have a race. The Derby was coordinated this year by the Pinewood Derby Chairman, Shawn Parks. We would also like to recognize Beth Schrader (concessions) and Brandon Schrader (main race official), both seasoned veterans of many Pinewood Derbies (and many to come). Helping Beth with concessions were Lori Granno and Michelle Parks. Helping out with the race were many race officials: Bryan Tisdale (registration), Kevin Wright (registration), Thad Granno (race coordination), Karen Shaw (race coordination), and Boy Scouts Jeffrey Wright and Austin Granno (car staging). And now, on to the results. The first award that will be mentioned is the 'Intrepid' Turtle award. This trophy took on special meaning this year as the car that won this award was almost entirely built by the Cub Scout! His dad started the car by making the rough cut of the Pinewood block. After that, he did all of the work to complete his Pinewood car on his own (sanding, painting, and prepping the wheels). A huge congratulations goes out to Gabe T. for the 'Intrepid' Turtle award. Thats truly the Scout Spirit!!! The Den Champions were:
The top five finalists were:
Congratulations to all of the boys who competed, no matter how you did you came out a winner. The boys learned a little bit about racing and physics (big stuff!), fair play, and having fun. They also got a chance to spend some time with a parent, grandparent, aunt, uncle, or other family member (building and racing the car). And in the end, Scouting is about family! ![]() The 2009 Pinewood Derby winners! | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
