Dear All,

I hope you are all well. I wanted to remind you about the upcoming Pinewood Derby next Friday, 2/19/16, 5 PM – 7 PM  and Saturday, 2/20/16, (see den times below).

I know this information has been on the website for several months but I am concerned about our new scout families and we are making some timing changes.  We were able to borrow a larger track that will allow us to race more cars at one time.

As previously annouced and on the pack Pinewood Derby webpage, the location is not at Mt Tabor UMC but at Burkhead UMC located at 5250 Silas Creek Pkwy, Winston-Salem, NC 27106. When traveling to Burkhead UMC from Mt Tabor UMC, please turn right from Silas Creek Parkway onto Pensby road on the left side of Burkhead UMC. Everyone should park behind the church and enter in the first door on the right as you drive into the back parking lot. I will put up some signs.

Each of dens will have their own race time:

8:00 AM – Tiger Den

9:00 AM – Wolf Den

10:15 AM – Bear Den

11:15 AM – Webelo I Den

12:30 PM – Webelo II Den

1:30 PM – Den Winners Return for a run off.

3:00 PM – Parent & Sibling Competition

The Venture Crew from Maple Springs Church will operate a snack bar from 8:00 AM – 4:00 PM. They will have serve breakfast, lunch, snacks, drinks, coffee and hot chocolate.

Our Pack Pinewood Derby rules have been posted on the website for many months but in case you missed them I am attaching them to this message as well. For our Pinewood Derby veterans, the rules are the same as they have been for many years, however, one small change occurred earlier this year, we now allow the use BSA Colored Wheels on the cars.

If you need help, please remember you can contact our Pack Pinewood Derby Expert, Kendall Frederick and by phone at 336-749-5801.

Kendall has also agreed to run the “PWD Car Fix It Table” at the weigh in/Inspection night on Friday. He can help with small issues but you must come Friday evening with the paint and glue dry on your car.

Take care-

Shannon
