Matthew had a fun time participating in the Pinewood Derby this year. We realized this is the second and last pinewood derby for him. Because of moving around (three different packs in three years for him) the timing of one derby was not in his favor. He never got to derby as a Bear, but oh well. And he's in Webelos now! We were proud of ourselves too 'cause we made his car without power tools (coping saw and sandpaper). Here he is ready to race.
His is the middle red car.
Here he is showing off his car. He got the "Fast and Furious" award for his sleek design.
I was in charge of a few Pinewood Derby races back in Colorado.
I know its tough. And we had some technical difficulties tonight, but it all worked out.
Middle red car again.
He got first and second place in his heats. The only person he lost to got second place overall. There was no timing system so we estimate he got about 4th overall based on his placement with the one car that beat him. Anyway, it was lots of fun. Way to go Matthew!!
