Pinewood Derby

This year the pinewood derby was held March 6, 2009. The evening started with lots of yummy pizza, furnished by the ward, fruit & veggie snacks furnished by the Wolf and Bear dens, along with miscellaneous treats for dessert, furnished by the Webelo's. After filling our tummies the racing began in the cultural hall where our awesome Pack Leaders, Brother Mark Holbrook and Brother Rick Marvin had the high tech race track set up and ready for the BIG race. Brother Magleby took care of tracking all of the times on his computer and made sure that each boy had at least six chances to race. There were 29 creatively cut and painted cars entered in this years pinewood derby. Each boy deserves a big CONGRATULATIONS and "ATTA BOY" on the time and effort they spent on their individual cars. Kids and adults alike seemed to have a great time. I know Brother Slade and I truly enjoyed watching the boys race their cars and cheering for our boys. Way to go Bears. We also want to congratulate Davis Cullimore for taking first place overall in this years pinewood derby. Even though Davis was not officially in our Bear Den at the time of the pinewood derby, we will claim him as one of our own Bear Scouts, awesome job Davis.
