To help prepare for this event, we are hosting a build night at the Oakdale Community Center on January 15th from 6 – 8:00 PM. We will communicate how the Pinewood Derby runs, discuss the rules, and help you transform your block of wood to the car of your dreams.

To add to the excitement on race day, we will have four awards for each rank:
BEST DECORATED
MOST CREATIVE
BEST SCOUT SPIRIT
BEST THEME
Scouts are encouraged to release their creative juices while building and decorating their cars!

The Oakdale Community Center is located at: 104 Seminary Ave. Oakdale PA 15071 https://maps.app.goo.gl/TBvF8cejb9VQyuyw8
