There are some truly amazing works of art!
We always welcome cars into Family division which includes all of our non-scout racers (siblings, parents, other adults). These cars are not eligible for the design awards, but we do give a Family Division Design Award for the Cubmaster's favorite car in this division.
New for 2021: Cubmaster Cup
2021 was the first year of our Cubmaster Cup, created in honor of Tim Harrington, our 2018-2021 Cubmaster, for whom the Pinewood Derby has always been his #1 most favorite Cub Scout activity. This racing division is open, by invitation only, to past Cubmasters and Committee Chairs of Pack 345. In 2021, our inaugral running, John Nay was the winner with his Nay Dog car!
2021 Entrants:
Tim Harrington: Tim Car
Mike Conte: Stained Car
John Nay: Nay Dog and Nay Blue cars
