The Pinewood Derby is one of the most popular events in Cub Scouting.  During the event, Cub Scouts race small, driverless wooden cars down a sloped track. The cars are powered only by gravity.

With an adult’s help, each Pinewood Derby car is built by a Cub Scout using a kit that includes a wooden block, plastic wheels and metal axles. Trophies or medals are often awarded for the fastest car and the best designs.

Pack 100 Scouts enjoy the thrill of racing and expressing their individuality with creative car designs.
