Pinewood Derby:
Boy Scout Pack 265

By: David B. McCoy


Brian used the provided pinewood block

to build his car, but the dangling roots

became entwined around the wheels.


Another boy used a Hershey's chocolate bar,

but it melted under the heat of the lights.


A third boy used a wedge of Swiss cheese,

but it wasn't very aerodynamic.


One boy named Mozart used ivory piano keys,

but it was as slow as weeping elephants.


The scout named "Johnny with Swift Feet"

built his car from the wind

and received the biggest trophy.
