Troop 706B, sponsored by Our Lady of Mercy Catholic Church in Potomac, Maryland, hosted their annual Pinewood Derby Cut -Out Day on Jan 7. For over 20 years, the troop has been assisting our next generation of Boy Scouts by offering this fun filled Cub Scout event. Cub Scouts, along with an adult, started with a safety briefing, then entered the cutting room where they designed their cars, work with the trained T 706 leaders to cut their cars, sanded and then weighted in for accuracy. The many tools, industrial machinery and complex vacuuming system was all provided by the youth and adults leadership of troop. Together, they helped to cut over 360 cars for the upcoming Pinewood Derby season!
