Pinewood Derby





Andrew competed in his first ever Pinewood Derby. He and Grandpa Norm worked on his car the weekend before the race. Thank Heavens for Grandpa because I wouldn't have had the foggiest idea how to make a car. Kevin was out of town for the actual race and Grandpa got to stand in and make some final, last minute adjustments. The dads apparently get pretty involved with making the cars. There were some very elaborate cars that I am pretty sure were not crafted by cubscouts. There was even one that looked like a Smartcar. Needless to say, Andrew took second place in the whole Derby. We are very proud of him and his car. Thanks Grandpa!! Great job Andrew!!
