2023 Trip to USS Yorktown - Operation Overnight

Pack 825 was thrilled to return to the historic USS Yorktown, located in Charleston, SC for the first time since 2019 for Operation Overnight. During our two-night stay, we slept on board the aircraft carrier in traditional Navy berthing compartments and ate meals in the ship's galley. We learned what life was like for Navy sailors and saw some of our military's most notable airplanes and ships up close. The USS Yorktown is a floating museum that includes a flight simulator, a hanger deck, movie theater, and so much more. It was an amazing opportunity and an awesome adventure!








2023 Pinewood Derby

Pack 825 held our 2023 Pinewood Derby today at Amity United Methodist Church. Cub Scouts began with an official Pinewood Derby Race Car kit, created a design, carved the wooden block, and detailed it with paint, decals and other accessories. The Pinewood Derby is a wonderful learning experience for Cub Scouts to build their own custom race car! This year the competition categories were:
  • Speed
  • Originality
  • Beauty
  • Scout's Choice
Trophies were awarded for 1st place in Scout's Choice; and 1st, 2nd and 3rd place in all other categories.

Thanks to all the scouts and families who participated and to the Pack 825 leadership and volunteers who helped put on this great race. 

Congratulations to all of the qualifiers from Pack 825's Pinewood Derby who will go on to compete at the Eno River District Pinewood Derby on February 24th. Best of luck!
