An Important Announcement for BVD Packs

The Cub Scout Leadership in attendance at the January Roundtable meeting came to an agreement regarding the use of the colored wheels purchased at the Scout Shop. According to the 2010 Mall Show Pinewood Derby Rules, the derby car must consist of the parts provided in the original BSA kit. If a car has the colored wheels, they will be disqualified, but the cub will be allowed to change the wheels to one of the two approved "black" wheels provided in the 2009 or 2008 BSA Derby Kits. To avoid altering the car, the Packs are asked to inform their membership of this requirement and to uphold the guidelines in the Mall Show rules to ensure that the cars that arrive at the mall will qualify to race without modifications.

1.   A reminder: Contact Pam Hupp for a Unit display location ASAP. Space is filling up and we need to make sure there is room for your unit.  phupp@washjeff.edu or 724-847-4034

2.   I need to ask for Volunteers to help set up tables & chairs on Friday evening (9:00 pm). We will meet in the DCI-Boscov's Hallway. Get a jump start on your display at the same time....You can set up your unit display after all the tables are distributed. Usually takes about 1 hour to complete the set up.

3.   I am looking for 2 microphones and speaker systems to help with the Pinewood Derby races. I have two systems offered so far. Anyone willing to help should contact Pam Hupp at phupp@washjeff.edu or 724-847-4034
