Rules:

1. All cooks (Scout + Father Figure) are responsible for planning, baking, decorating, and CLEAN UP. Remember, a scout always leaves an area better than he/she found it.

2. The cake and all decorations visible must be completely edible. You may use nonedible items for support, but they cannot be visible.

3. Cake and icing mixes are allowed; however, we have heard that the more “from scratch” you make it, the messier it can get. And the messier it gets, the more fun you may have.

4. Moms, sisters, grandmas, aunts, etc. are encouraged to watch and enjoy the experience. Photo opportunities abound!

5. Entries will be placed on tables. You may bring your cake in starting at 5pm. All cakes must arrive by 5:15pm.

Congratulations to all the cub scouts, siblings and adults who participated in the pinewood derby this year. Not enough can be said about how great the cars were this year. Great job and hope you all had fun and did your best! Thank you to all the volunteers who made this happen.
