Pinewood Derby Trivia

The BSA National Scouting Museum hosted more than 1,500 visitors during its opening ceremony and during its first week of operation after reopening in October 2002 in a new 50,000-square-foot facility next to the BSA national office in Irving, Texas. One of visitors' favorite exhibits was the Pinewood Derby track, where Cub Scouts can participate in actual races.
