Race car fans it is that time of year again......Race Day!
This was Chandler's last Pinewood Derby and Jake's second. Each of the boys decided what shape car they wanted. Geoff cut them out then the boys sanded and painted it all themselves. Neither car took home a trophy but surprisingly enough Chandler's mini van style "Tails" car came in 5 out of 16. The car was already heavy and only required 4 screws in the bottom near the back tires. Jake's car although a bit more "racey" might have been slowed down by the 1 oz weight we managed to set down in the car like an engine. Both boys had fun and were proud of their work, which is truly all they needed to do.
Upcoming events.....Chandler will get his Arrow of Light!

These races are so fun. We did the Space Derby this year and it was ALOT of fun! I am so proud of Chandler for getting his arrow of light!
You know.....now that I've been in cubs for a year, this stuff actually means something to me. Last year I would have read your post and it would have been like Chinese to me.... :-0 Miss you!
