Boy Scout Pinewood Derby

The kids got to build their first "Pinewood derby" cars this year.  We had a building day with the boy scouts and the kids (with Daddy's help) got to use drills, power-sanders, hammers, and other fun power tools.  This is quite the involved process!  People add weights, file axels, and do all of these little things to make their cars faster. 





On the day of the race, they each got to race their car 4 times, once in each lane. 


 Clayton's car won 2nd place in the tiger scout division and 2nd place overall!
 Caroline's car won the "siblings" race!
