WHY:
AFTER YEARS OF LIMITED MARKETING, BACK IN 2002 THE PINEWOOD
DERBY DEN EMERGED ON TO THE WORLD WIDE MARKET IN ANSWER
TO THE DEMANDS OF A GROWING NUMBER OF SATISFIED CUSTOMERS.
WE ARE ONE OF THE OLDEST SELLERS ON THE INTER NET WITH
THOUSANDS OF SATISFIED CUSTOMERS. WE SPECIALIZE IN CUSTOM
PRECUT PINEWOOD DERBY BODIES AND SPEED SUPPLIES, CATERING TO
THE NEEDS OF THE "POWER TOOL CHALLENGED," SINGLE PARENT
FAMILIES, FAMILIES WITH A MILITARY DEPLOYED PARENT,
NEWCOMERS TO THE EVENT OF PINEWOOD DERBY AND EVEN A FEW
OLD TIMERS LOOKING OF THAT LAST CHANCE AT VICTORY.
WHAT:
THE PINEWOOD DERBY DEN SPECIALIZES IN THE BSA (CUB SCOUTS)
PINEWOOD DERBY. HOWEVER, MOST OF THE ITEMS OFFERED ARE
SUITABLE FOR OTHER GROUPS.
AT THE PINEWOOD DERBY DEN, THE MAJORITY OF THE INVENTORY IS
PURCHASED RETAIL FROM THE LOCAL "SCOUT SHOP" AND ALONG
WITH MAKING YEARLY DONATIONS, WE ARE CONTINUALLY
REINVESTING BACK IN TO THE BSA PROGRAM.
AT THE PINEWOOD DERBY QUALITY IS ALWAYS HIGH, ITEMS ARE
NEVER MASSED PRODUCED, AND WE WILL NEVER MARKET ANYTHING
WE WOULD NOT USE OURSELVES.
AT THE PINEWOOD DERBY DEN, WE BELIEVE IN VALUE. DO NOT BE
MISLED BY HIGH PRICES. JUST BECAUSE SOMEONE MAY SELL AN ITEM
FOR A HIGHER PRICE DOES NOT NECESSARILY MAKE IT A BETTER
PRODUCT. (A SCOUT MOTTO: "TIMELESS VALUES")
