Pinewood Derby


Ryan had his pinewood derby last week. It's a big deal(more for the dads then the boys - at-least in our house) Ryan was hoping Casey would behave this year(his words). They make, paint, and decorate their own cars. The week before they have a weigh in. The cars can't be over 5.0 ounces.


They combine with a couple other troops and race their cars they've made. Our track had a bit of a bump in one of the lanes. I'm sure they(the dads) will fix that before next year, because it created a bit of a disadvantage to the car in that lane. NOBODY wanted to be in that lane. You can see Ryan's car has been bumped off the lane.



Oh well, it was fun and Ryan got 4th. He was happy.



There were cupcakes and cookies after everyone was done. This was Ryan's last year for racing. He moves up to Webelos in September.



Thanks to Chris for the pictures and the time and effort she puts into each activity. Ryan loves scouts!
