Mission Peak held a district-wide Pinewood Derby at ILM Academy on Saturday, May 14th. It was attended by 42 Cub Scouts from 4 different packs – Packs 110, 119, 153, and 154. The event was conducted with the help of 9 scouts from Troops 110, 154, and 273. The track of 49 feet featured electronic timing with the fastest car going 215 mph. Awards were given in many categories. Special thanks to Ms. Anu Zindal and Ashley, Steve and Parker Kaplans. We had a number of Knock-Knock Jokes, good and bad between races. We will be posting a video of the event soon.
