Cub Scouts place in Pinewood Derby

If you’ve ever been a Cub Scout or have a child in scouting, you know that one of the biggest events of the year is the Pinewood Derby. Starting with just a seven-inch-long block of wood, scouts—along with their parents—work weeks to design, cut, drill, sand, hammer and paint their block into a car design of their choosing, and compete for first place down a 30-foot-long, 16-inch-wide track.
