In 1953, Don Murphy set out to “devise a wholesome, constructive activity that would foster a closer father-son relationship and promote craftsmanship and good sportsmanship through competition … Within a year of its debut, the Pinewood Derby has been adopted for use in all Cub Scout packs. Estimates suggest that more than 100 million Cub Scouts have participated in the event over the past 55 years.” --excerpts from October 2008 Scouting magazine
