The Painted Turtle – Pine Wood Derby Races for Hemophilia Kids

Since 2004 PVCA has been supporting The Painted Turtle http://www.ThePaintedTurtle.org through various events from car shows to night at the races.   For the last few years the club has been helping with the pine wood derby races that the kids at camp have each year.   We have donated trophies and other items to the kids and the camp.   But the main event is we take anywhere from 10 to 12 cars up to the camp and have lunch with the kids and the counselors then we let the kids look at and sit in our cars.  And you can bet they all find the horn sooner or later.

This year the camp have asked us back to help again.   We will meet (place to be determined) about 9am then take the ride up to Lake Hughes area where the camp is located.   We’ll have lunch with the kids and enjoy their lunch time activities.    After lunch we’ll get a tour of the camp.  Then head over to our cars so we can open them up during the racing.  We’ll help do some judging of the best design, etc.

We normally finish up about 3:30 and head home.
