Testing the new blog & email layout!

District Derby Canceled
Due to a lack of track and volunteers, the 2018 district pinewood derby has been canceled.
Per announcements beginning early December, via this newsletter, district meetings, roundtables, and district calendar, we needed support from our Cub units in setting up a track and a few to assist with weigh-ins and running the cars. In order to adequately prepare, we had until January 20th to have volunteers come forward. That, unfortunately did not happen.
Hopefully we will be able to resume the races for our Scouts in 2019!
