Cub Scout Toy Car Racing Event Draws a Crowd

Excitement filled the room during the event.

Cub Scouts from Troop 8 in Chatham filled a room at Ogden Memorial Presbyterian Church on Saturday, toy cars in hand.

The cub scouts built the cars and watched them race down a track.

Cars made by children from various dens within the cub scout pack first raced against one another, and then the winning cars raced against one another.
