All Den Leaders have received car kit at the January Pack meeting.

Lunch (including pizza, fruit, and cupcakes) will be provided by the pack!

Den weigh-in times:

• Tiger - 10:00 am
• Wolf - 10:10 am
• Bear - 10:20 am
• Webelos 1 - 10:30 am
• Webelos 2 - 10:40 am
  

Rules:

• The heat format will be double-elimination, so every scout races at least twice.
• Cars are to be built by the scouts. Parents may assist in the use of power or sharp tools.
• Cars may weigh up to 5 oz. as determined by the official scale.
• All cars are to be built from kits supplied by the Pack.
• Accessories may be added as long as they do not change the overall width of the cars wheelbase or clearance from the bottom of the car to the track.
• Once a car has been weighed-in, it may not be re-lubricated or modified, except to reattach parts that may have fallen off during the heat.
  

We are looking for volunteers to set up tracks, weigh in, number the cars, call the winners, and run the starting gate. Volunteers should be at the church at 9 am.

Parents and siblings are also encouraged to participate in the Derby, but you must purchase your own car kit at the Scout shop. Please let us know if you are interested.
