Cub Scouts race in Pinewood Derby

Cub Scout Pack 131 of Suttons Bay held its annual Pinewood Derby on Saturday.

Scouts raced wooden cars designed by the boys and girls down an inclined track. Scouts from Troop 131 assisted with the race, administering the rolling of the cars, as well as welcoming the Cubs to the race and working in the pit area.

The cars were created in numerous unique shapes, and were painted by the Cubs in assorted colors, or left as plain wood. The cars had to be made to certain specifications, particularly that the weight was less than 5 ounces.
