Cub Scouts are basically age 7 though 11. Every year they have an event called the "Pinewood Derby". Each Scout is given a block of wood, 4 plastic wheels, and 4 nails. The blocks of wood can be carved into any shape desired and weighted with anything as long as they don't weigh over 5 ounces. Troops race their cars down an incline and winners go on to race others winners culminating in a national championship. The craftsmanship and beauty of the cars submitted by the boys is remarkable. I will never forget though, a young Cub Scout submitting a car that was poorly painted with wheels so uneven it would barely roll. It was one of the finest cars I have seen.
