Pinewood Derby

This year was our first official pinewood derby race. Andrew's scout leaders were kind enough to welcome their scouts and their fathers into their wood shop to use the tools, etc. needed to create the perfect car. Jim and Andrew spent some time together over there working together to make Andrew's car exactly how he wanted it. They really enjoyed the time together and we are grateful Brother Burnett allowed the use of his tools and expertise as they made the entire process much easier. After some spray paint, stickers and weights it was off to the races.

All the cars

All the cars' creators


Andrew's car wasn't the fastest but he had a ton of fun. It was a fun experience. One that I'm sure will be repeated for a few more years.
