• I took a piece of plastic clay And idly fashioned it one day: And as I pressed it, still
  It bent and yielded to my will.
  I came again when days were past: That bit of clay was hard at last.
  My early impress still it bore,
  And I could change its form no more.
  You take a piece of living clay
  And gently form it day by day, Molding with your power and art
  A young boy’s soft and yielding heart.

  You come again when days are gone: It is a man you look upon.
  Your early impress still it bore,
  And you could change him never more.
  You are dealing with a boy Who must be guided unaware: Must be shown, but oh so gently How to live both true and fair.
  Pins and badges aren’t our aim. Character building is our goal. But not to lose your courage now, For you are piloting a soul.

Pinewood Derby ~ Great Salt Lake - Cub Scout Themes - PowWow Books - Pack Meeting Plans

This information for holding a Pinewood Derby was in the 2006 Utah Great Salt Lake Council PowWow book.  This is a great idea, and many of the things that were used back then can still be used today.

PINEWOOD DERBY
History: The first Pinewood Derby was held in 1953 by Cub Scout Pack 280 of Manhattan Beach, California. Don Murphy was the Cubmaster of that pack and he came up with the concept and rules for the father-son project. He says, “I wanted to devise a wholesome constructive activity that would forge a closer father-son relationship and promote craftsmanship and good sportsmanship through competition.” When the race began, Pack280 had seven dens and totaled 55 Cub Scouts. In October 1954, Boys’ Life publicized the event and offered plans for the track and car, which featured “four wheels, four nails, and three blocks of wood.” Little has changed in the Pinewood Derby car race since 1953. Since that time an estimated 43 million sons and fathers (mostly) have participated. Every year more than a million boys and parents team up to carve, decorate, weigh, adjust, fret over, and finally race a Pinewood Derby Car. Cub Scouts Pinewood Derby Racing has been adopted by the Girl Scouts, Awana Grand Prix, Royal Rangers, Kub Kar Rally, Shape N Race Derby, and most recently WIRL (Woodcar Independent Racing League).
Purpose: The purpose of the Pinewood Derby is to help the Cub Scout build a team relationship with their parent or helper, experience the sense of accomplishment and the excitement of competition, learn good sportsmanship, and to have FUN!
Planning: When planning a Pinewood Derby, be sure to start in advance and consider using a committee. They can help make the event successful and take a lot of weight off the Cubmaster and the Pack Committee Chair. Here is a list of some individuals who could serve on that committee.

• Chairman: This person is responsible for the committee. They need to be organized and motivated.
  They should hold two or three meetings in the months prior to the race.
  
• Master of Ceremonies: This person could be the Cubmaster but needs to be the “announcer” of the
  Pinewood Derby.
  
• Rules Team: This group creates, approves, and distributes the rules of car construction and race
  procedures.
  
• Sponsors Team: These people find local businesses who might donate prize “giveaways” and raffle
  goodies as well as decorations, etc.
  
• Construction Clinics Team: Some packs offer a night when people can come and work on their cars.
  This team would be over that clinic.
  
• Pit Crew Team: They work on cars the night of the race to make sure that they stay in good repair.
  
• Track Setup Team: Like it says, they help set up and take down the track.
  
• Registration Team: Cars are usually turned in previous to the night of the race. This team weighs in
  the cars and takes care of them until race day.
  
• Starter: Someone to start the cars on the day of the race.
  
• Decoration Team: These people decorate the building you are using on race day.
  
• Finishers: Someone to watch the end of the race and may involve judging the car finish order.
  
• Refreshments Team: This team makes sure there are refreshments for the Cubs and their families.
  
• Results Chart Team: This team keeps track of the races and who wins.
  
• Awards Team: These people are responsible for developing an
  award program for the races. They purchase trophies and medals,
  coordinate the making of certificates, etc.
  
• Cleanup Team: Make sure that the building is cleaned after the race.

Raisin Racer - a Fun Treat and Activity for the Pinewood Derby

Something that would be a lot of fun to use as a treat for the Pinewood Derby would be Raisin Racers.

Turn a small raisin box into a racer! Step one print this PDF.  Step two is to eat all the raisins from a 1 1/2 oz raisin carton.  Next, or while you're doing that, color in the racer and cut along the outside dotted line.  Then fold where indicated and glue to the raisin box as shown in the picture.  Raisins have lots of iron in them.  This is an iron-powered race car!

 Click here for a PDF you can print and have the kids color.
