It's Race Time!

On Saturday Pack 209 had it's annual Pinewood Derby race at Zoar Lutheran. The boys were all excited after seeing the race track with all it's bells and whistles. It was a far cry from the old wooden track we raced on when I was a scout. The Tigers had a great showing this year. There were quite a few cars that surprised the crowd. Den 4 had 2 members that placed in the top two spots in the Tiger Age group. Jacob Yeary (1st) and Drake Schmit (2nd) made us all proud. Jacob ended up 3rd overall in the Pack's finals. Both scouts have the opportunity to represent the pack in the District Race in March. We wish them Good Luck! The parents also had a good showing. Den 4 had four entries in the parent's competition. Kent Purvis came out the winner from the Tiger's group and ended up 2nd overall.
