Pinewood Derby

Our ward's Cub Scout Pinewood Derby has come and gone. With all the tools we have access to, our interesting in crafty stuff, and our competitive natures, we are really getting into Pinewood Derby racing. So out of the Klippel/Hale Ranch, we built 5 cars for the Cub Scout/Ward activity. Take a look at the pictures and see if you can guess which car belongs to which Hale or Klippel.

The family to beat in our ward is the Grover family - their cars have won the last several years. So the top 4 cars ended up being 2 Grover cars and 2 Hale cars. Emily came in 2nd and I came in 4th. On the VERY last race, Emily's got bumped off the track by the starting gate and dropped to the ground and completely busted a wheel. But that's alright, Emily was already beat a couple time previously by the competing car. It was a lot of fun making and racing the cars and we're getting better at it...so watch out next year!
