Pinewood Derby Event Sponsorship
What is a Pinewood Derby?
Partnered with a parent or guardian, Cub Scouts work together, strengthening bonds and building confidence – and their own custom race cars! They begin with an official Pinewood Derby Race Car kit, then create a design, then carve it from the wood block provided in the kit, and detail it with paint, decals and other accessories, and perfect strategies to compete in their pack’s own Pinewood Derby.
It’s s a wonderful learning experience centered on teamwork, ingenuity and sportsmanship – all for the thrill of the race and a lifetime of great memories to share with fellow racers young and old.
Why Become a Sponsor?
As a sponsor, you play a vital role in having this event become a high-impact program. Youth and Adults from all across Northwest Ohio are invited to attend.
The Erie Shores council supports local Scouting programs in Lucas, Ottawa, Sandusky, Wood, and eastern Fulton Counties. Each year our Scouts take part in the excitement of the Pinewood Derby, crafting their car and racing against fellow Scouts!
Your support allows us to make this an event one they will not forget!
The Benefits of Sponsoring
