Some Packs
choose to purchase awards separately or combine additional awards (trophies, ribbons, certificates) available from the MC.
Most Pack Units award 1st/2nd/3rd place trophies for speed and one or two best design trophies. Each scout usually receives
a participation ribbon. Some Packs can fund additional awards given to each rank's winners (Tigers, Wolves, Bears or
Webelos). Decorative ribbons, certificates, patches or pins are appropriate.
Do not forget
to recognize the combined talents of your cub & partner team. Homemade Certificates can be presented for several
categories; such as, Best Design (Traditional "Boy made"), Best Unique Design (Most Unusual), Wackiest, Coolest, Most Colorful,
Best Reptile, Best Food Item, or a "What Is It?" award. The award's decisions should be made by the derby committee,
approved by the Pack Committee and the Pack Treasurer. However, one individual will usually be responsible for ordering
the awards for the race. If your Pack choose to award these extras, be sure to assign someone the duty to Judge
the cars before the race begins. Otherwise, time will get away form you and boys will take there cars home instead
of returning them to the table.

Committee members (and maybe some volunteer parents) help with post-event cleanup.
