Register at www.chattahoocheecouncilsa.org/PintDerby

WHILE THE PINEWOOD DERBY IS ALL ABOUT SCOUTS LEARNING TO USE TOOLS AND BRINGING THEIR OWN DESIGNS TO LIFE (WITH A LITTLE HELP FROM PARENTS), THE PINT DERBY IS WHERE ADULTS GET TO SHOW OFF THEIR SKILLS, COMPETE FOR GLORY, AND ENJOY A BEER—ALL WHILE SUPPORTING SCOUTING!

HOW IT WORKS:

• BUILD YOUR CAR – UPON REGISTRATION, A REPRESENTATIVE FROM THE BOY SCOUTS WILL CONTACT YOU FOR CAR KIT PICKUP/DELIVERY. YOUR KIT IS INCLUDED WITH YOUR EVENT REGISTRATION. 
• RACE DAY – COMPETE IN EITHER THE REGULAR RACING CLASS (FOLLOWING OFFICIAL RULES) OR THE OPEN CLASS, WHERE CREATIVITY IS KING—ANYTHING GOES, AS LONG AS IT’S NOT MOTORIZED OR DAMAGING TO THE TRACK!
• ENJOY THE FUN – BRING YOUR BEST BUILD, ENJOY THE COMPETITION, AND RAISE A GLASS TO SUPPORT LOCAL SCOUTING PROGRAMS!
