Down and Derby

Every year the Boy Scouts participate in the Annual Pinewood Derby. For any of you involved in Scouts, you know this is a BIG deal. Each Scout is given a block of wood to design their own car. The car can be made in any shape, but it has to adhere to the weight guidelines. This year Christopher decided to make a classic race car. People joke that the Pinewood Derby is actually a competition for Dads to boost their ego by designing the fastest and best car for their kid. I am proud to say this was not the case with Steve and Christopher. Although Steve was very hands on with the project, Christopher thought of the design and did a great job carving and using the sander. I personally think it turned out great, but I suppose my opinion is a little biased. Christopher loved the evening and was so excited when his car made it to the finals.
