Cub Scouts, start your Cardboard?
The Cardboard Racers always zoom in our month of November. The November Pack has a lot of good things happening. One of them, its the pack meeting for the Classic Cardboard Racers. This Pack meeting event has quickly turned into one the most exciting for our Scouts.

I'll be honest, it can be pretty crazy... but for the young Scouts its the event they always say is one of their favorites. Pictures are worth a thousands words. Videos too. See below  :)
 

                                             

                          

                          

                          

                             

We bought duct tape, soft nylon rope and went to a furniture store and asked for some large pieces of cardboard. We built 4 racers. Due to space, we would race 3 teams at once. The key to success is to keep it following regardless of whether all 3 teams are ready to go. Just count it down, 3, 2, 1, GO! and watch them race down and back.
                          
                          
                               As you can see, its not too complicated  :)

No ribbons or prizes were given. It's just a fun event where as Den Leaders you'll need to ensure everyone gets a chance to ride. Asking other Den Leaders to see if all the Scouts have ridden is key.
