I hope that all of the the boys had a great time on Saturday. It was an exciting day with some close races, but the most important part of the Pinewood Derby is the quality time the boys spent with their parents designing and assembling their cars. It's a wonderful learning experience for them!
Our race day finished up with the top four cars competing for a chance at one of the trophies. The final results were as follows:
- 1st Place: Jared Pall (Webelos, Den 3)
- 2nd Place: Jacob Hojdar (Bear, Den 1)
- 3rd Place: Chris Bryant (Wolf, Den 10)
- 4th Place: Eric Bliss (Webelos, Den 7)
In addition, we are able to send 4 boys from each rank forward to the District competition taking place on April 28th. The boys attending are as follows:
- Tiger: Aiden Johnston, William Barrows, Justin Mutter, Quincy Newsom
- Wolf: Chris Bryant, Alexander Blyler, Ethan Moseley, Chase Ratkovich
- Bear: Jacob Hojdar, Ryan Mertes, Jared Mulcahy, Ryan Sprenger
- Webelos: Jared Pall, Eric Bliss, Aidan Turner, Jacob Dent
If any of the boys are unable to attend Districts, the Scout with the next fastest time will be notified and given the opportunity to attend.
