A few weeks ago, the Allohak District held their annual pinewood derby sponsored by Pack 311 and Darby Community Church. ClassB was fortunate enough to be invited to judge the design competition.
It was a beautiful day and things got off to a great start as the sponsoring pack served up a hot breakfast of Pancakes. Burgers were offered for lunch, for a small fee.
The opening ceremony was awesome. The leader asked all the Scouts to recite this classic derby poem in preparation for the day’s festivities:
My car is wood,
The wheels are vinyl,
I race for fun,
and the Judges decision is FINAL!
ClassB had the honor of judging the cars entered into the design competition. Some of the categories were: military, patriotic, scout-themed, and food designs. The design level of the cars entered was superb and it took our judges many rounds and an organized point system to finally determine the winners, but in the end everyone left happy.

Attending local Scouting events such as this one, is one of the perks of what we do. Thank you to the leaders of the Allohak District for extending us the invitation!
