Pinewood Derby 2009

On January 24th we held our annual Pinewood Derby and we wanted to share with you a few of the sights and sounds of the event.

Our Tiger scouts were excited and drew these pictures.

Movie Night - 1-23-2008

On Friday the 23rd, starting at 6:30pm we'll be showing Down and Derby to warm the kids up for the Pinewood Derby on Saturday the 24th. Popcorn and drinks will be served.

Note: If you have not checked your car in for the Derby this is your Last Chance!

See you at the movies ...

Reminder: Weigh-in nights 1-15 & 1-16

Reminder, we're checking in cars on Friday 1-16-2009 between 6:30-7:30. You need to have your car weighed before it can race and we will not be checking in any cars the day of the race.

January Pack 61 events

The weather outside is cold but we're going to heat things up with some Pinewood Derby action this month.

• January 15th - Weigh-in night 6:30pm-7:30pm
• January 16th - Weigh-in night 6:30pm-7:30pm
• January 23rd - Movie Night in Charrier Hall 6:30pm, Down-n-Derby! Popcorn will be served
• January 24th - Pinewood Derby, doors open at 11am, races start at noon.

Derby notes:

• All cars need to be weighed in at one of the weigh-in nights and will be stored until race. This allows us to get a count of the cars and display the cars for judging before the race. We will not have time to weigh-in any cars on the day of the race I'm afraid.
• The Masons will be once again having a CT Chip event in the church library, this is a free service and we are encouraging people to spread the word. See http://www.ctchip.org/ for details on the program.
