The Peralta Cup is a Pinewood Derby between Cub Scouts in the Alameda Area District (includes the old Alameda, Peralta and Tres Ranchos Districts) and Packs in other invited Districts.

Races will be held for Cubs by year (Lion, Tiger, Wolf, Bear, Weblo I and Weblo II) as well as for siblings, parents and older Scouts volunteering at the event.

Ticket costs include time working on your car at the Montera Middle School woodshop on (dates TBD), the races, and trophies for the winners. We will be selling lunch and snacks on race day for adults and other audience members. Cash and Venmo accepted.

Pinewood Derby scholarships are available for Cub Scouts. Parents/Guardians should email [email protected] to apply.

Ticket cost does NOT include the Pinewood Derby kit or weights. Those will be for sale at the workshop events for $12, if you need one (check with your Den Leader, some Packs give them to their members as part of their dues). We will also be selling weights as well. Cash and Venmo accepted.
