Sanford Maine 

By Jay M. Woodward Pony Express Editor

    On Saturday, March 10, 2007, for the second year in a row, NNED Royal Rangers held the Northern New England 600 Pinewood Derby at the Curtis Lake Christian Church in Sanford, Maine.  This year, a total of 69 boys and leaders from across Maine, New Hampshire, and Vermont entered in the competition for the thrill of the race, and to earn some fabulous prizes!       Boys and leaders spent many hours designing, cutting, sculpting, sanding, painting, fine tuning the wheels, and putting the finishing touches on their sleek wooden racing machines in order to get ready for the competition.
