Bay Ridge Cub scouts hold annual Pinewood Derby
It felt like the Indy 500 for the roomful of Cub scouts as they gathered to watch their lightning fast custom-built toy race cars head to the finish line.
Local Cub Scout Pack 313 held its annual Pinewood Derby on Sunday, Jan. 21, at Saint Anselm Catholic Academy, 365 83rd St. in Bay Ridge. This is one of many activities undertaken by Cub Scouts and Boy Scouts in Brooklyn.
The Boy Scouts of America was formed in 1910 by retired British Army officer Robert Baden-Powell.
