Cub Scout Pinewood Derby Race winners from the Crossroads and Pine Hill Districts will compete against each other to determine who the fastest racers will be. 

Race day is April 18th at 12:00 noon at Center Court of the Deptford Mall. 

In order to race, each car must be brought in person to a Weigh-In.  

First weigh-in  will be April 11th.  Second weigh-in will be April 16th.

Cars will be checked in and assigned a race car number.  Cars will then need to pass an inspection to determine elligibility.  If the car passes, it wil wrapped and boxed for transport to race day.  If the car fails inspection, you will be able to make any repairs/adjustments to the car.  Tools and staff will be available to guide you in this process.  STAFF WILL NOT BE MAKING ADJUSTMENTS TO ANY CARS.  You will need to have a parent or a representative who can do repairs there.
