Day at the Derby: Scouts race wood cars at annual event

Dozens of young Scouts spent an afternoon at the track on Saturday — enjoying the Pinewood Derby where they race wooden cars they created themselves.

Three Cub Scout packs from Andover were among those competing on Feb. 4. Scouts from Packs 73, 76 and 77 had cars racing from 8 a.m.to 5 p.m. on a track inside the United Methodist Church in North Andover, across from Rocky's Ace Hardware.

Winners in all ranks qualified for the Yankee Clipper Council west wind district race that will be held in March.
