Afghanistan Race

Post by gpraceman »

Here's a few photos of our troops having a race in Afghanistan. According to the race coordinator, "Everyone had a great time - including some of our coalition partners from Mongolia and Guam, who had never seen a Pinewood race."

Awana Grand Prix and Pinewood Derby racing - Where a child, an adult and a small block of wood combine for a lot of fun and memories.

Randy,

Thank's for shareing the photos of our Toops.. PWD Racing in Afghanistan.

Do you know if there is any way we could show our Military Troops a little more gratitude.
In the photos.. I see alot of our troops watching the race..
and so few cars setting on the table to be raced.
Do you know if there is any way to ship out pinewood derby kits to our Toops
to get more of them involved in building a car and racing.

Is there a way to get involved to help our Toops out with mailing out pinewood derby kits..
That you know of.
