Cowlitz County, WA Pinewood DerbyFebruary 20,2010 Our 3rd Annual First Class Pinewood Derby is almost here. We will have the cars ready to hand out at Registration Day,January 29,2010. This is for all First Class Children and , of course, parents are welcome to do their own cars as well. Here are some instructions for finishing the derby cars: We did decide to put a maximum weight on the cars, as we were told by the Boy Scouts rep that this was a good idea...so the maximum weight is 5 oz. I was told by the same individual that you can weigh the cars at the post office if you don't have a scale. You can get creative as to how you mount the weights on the cars. Coins can be hot glued to the bottom of the car, just make sure they don't rub the wheels or get too thick - so that they stop the car on the track. Several people have used special techniques for placing the weights inside the car - Dads, Grandpas or big Brothers could help in this area I am sure! Decorating is up to the individual child. Lots of families are using supplies they have at home and embellishing the cars with things like Lego drivers and steering wheels. The date for the derby is Feb 20,2010 from 4:00 - 6:00 p.m. at New Life Fellowship Church. Any questions please email firstclasscowlitzcounty@yahoo.com. Looking forward to an exciting race! |
