Pinewood Derby

The girls are doing scouts this year and participated in their first Pinewood Derby. We went over to a fellow scout's house to use their tools. 

Neither of the girls' cars ended up winning for speed, but they both got recognized for design! Eleanor and Jane spent a lot of time decorating their cars. We found out last minute that there was an "outlaw" category where siblings could race cars, so we got two of Chris' old pinewood derby cars and entered them for Ben and Rosie so they would have a stake in the game. They did not outperform anyone, but Ben was very excited to have a car in the race.

Jane and her car: USA, All the Way

Overall a good first experience for them! Eleanor's car is going to district for design.
