Pinewood Derby Time!


Joe and Jonathan were putting the final touches on Jonathan's Pinewood Derby car right before the race. We were very thankful other Cub Scouts were willing to share some of their weights. (We apparently did not have enough added before we got there...)

Here is the final product! Jonathan did most of the work; helping cut the wood, sanding, most of the painting, etc. His design was based off of an Army Hummer he saw.


Jonathan was very proud of his car and we were proud of him and all of his work!


This is the line up from his troop.


When it was time to race, each Cub Scout placed their car on the starting line.


The track was pretty long. Here is a shot of Jonathan's car on the right track winning!


Here is a shot of Jonathan's car right before it crossed the finish line!


I thought it was cute watching the boys follow their cars and get so excited about the race.


Jonathan won 3rd place! He was so excited to get a trophy. His car is also being entered into the regional races on May 1st! We are so proud of our little Scout!
