Stonebriar Chevrolet Host to the Cub Scouts Derby

Stonebriar Chevrolet gives back to the community by teaming with the local Cub Scouts. Taking part in the annual Pinewood Derby was an honor, as the space that normally occupies motorized vehicles turned into a showroom for the boys' handmade cars.

July 19, 2010 - PRLog -- What do you get when you combine the ingenuity of a Cub Scout and an ordinary block of Pinewood?  You get some of the fastest, coolest cars to ever take the track!  Stonebriar Chevrolet proudly hosted the Second Annual Cub Scouts Derby to a showroom full of sixty-five smiling kids and their families. http://www.stonebriarchevrolet.com

A tradition that goes back over fifty years, the Pinewood Derby allows Scouts to build and create a car using only a block of wood, wheels, and nails.  Each car can be customized under certain guidelines with decals, weights and decorations.  With a lot of hard work and a little help from their parents, the long line of derby cars truly was a sight to see!

Normally reserved for new vehicles, the Stonebriar Chevrolet Showroom was instantly transformed into high paced racing competition.  The elevated wooden track reached out over sixty feet long and extended four lanes wide.  Students from three local elementary schools including Brinker, Beverly and Andrew stood proud holding their cars as they let them zoom down the gravity propelled track.  At the finish line over one hundred heat races took place with some of the parents even getting into the action with derby creations of their own.

Accomplishment pins were issued for all Scouts that participated and trophies were given to the winners.  The staff at Stonebriar Chevrolet was delighted to hold such a great event and happily provided the kids with refreshments, a tour of the dealership, and a sneak peak at some of the coolest Chevy cars on the road.  As the exciting night drew to an end the kids sat down and presented a special “thank you” banner for everyone at Stonebriar who made the event possible. http://www.stonebriarchevrolet.com
