Marion Cub Scout Pack 32 is holding a soapbox derby and food drive on Saturday, November 5, from 10 am to 2pm.
The derby will be held on Holmes Street Marion. If weather forces a cancellation, the derby’s rain date is Sunday, November 6.
Starting at 10 am, the Scouts will be racing their homemade soapbox cars. Once the races are finished, the raceway will open up to family members, potential Scouts and other community members who feel the need for speed and want to take the soapbox cars for a spin.
The Cub Scouts welcome everyone to the races, whether they want to try out the cars or just cheer on the competitors. If you have nonperishable food items to help support a local pantry, please drop them off at this event, and we will get them to those in need.
There is still plenty of time for boys and girls from kindergarten through grade five to join the Cub Scouts. For more information, please contact marioncubscoutspack32@gmail.com. We cannot wait to see you at our annual race. Other packs or individuals who may want to participate, please contact the pack.
