Sky Island (WEST) Pinewood Derby
A decision was made to have each of the former districts to hold their own Pinewood Derby as in the past. With that in mind:
1. The race for Sky Islands (WEST), the former Old Pueblo District, will be on March 2 2019 at Mountain View High School. Just like previous years.
2. The top 3 from each rank of Cub Scouts from your pack will be able to race and potentially compete at the Council Races later this Spring at the Double V Scout Ranch. (Lion-Tiger-Wolf-Bear-WEBELOS- AOL)
3. If an AOL Scout has graduated into Boy Scouts that scout may still race as one of the pack.
4. The Pack Leader should register their scouts for this event. (1 e-mail per unit please).
5. Please note the time of registration and race times noted below. Also make sure your scout is registered 5 minutes prior to your scouts scheduled race time. Time may vary but be prepared at the time scheduled
Rank Check in Times / Race Times
Lions 8:30 – 9:00 / 9:00
