SENSE Charter School's Cub Scout Pack 18 participated in this year's Pinewood Derby on March 23rd. It was held at IPS School 63. Pictured here are some of the SENSE participants. For more pics form the event visit: https://www.facebook.com/pg/cacafterschoolprograms/photos/?tab=album&album_id=2330687020493870
The Pinewood Derby is a racing event for unpowered, unmanned miniature cars. Pinewood derbies are often run by chapters (packs) of the Cub Scouts program of Boy Scouts of America. With the help of adults, Scouts build their own cars from wood, usually from kits containing a block of pine wood, plastic wheels, and metal axles. And then they decorate it.
For the price of admission to this year's event, people could donate non-perishable food. The food was then donated to SENSE Charter and School 63 to help keep their pantry stocked. Thank you Boy Scouts of America Crossroads District and Josette Crawford, District Director for School & After-School Programs!

In order to ensure the safety of our students, we ask that all visitors enter and sign in at the front office. This includes mornings during breakfast. We appreciate your cooperation and patience!
