Pine Wood Derby


It's that time of year when Cub Scouts all over the country are building Pine Wood Derby cars! This year Andrew and my dad designed and constructed his car. It is a Brookline Special, an English "classic" car. They worked very hard on it and it turned out great! In fact it won 3rd place in the design category and 8th place for speed! Needless to say, Andrew and dad are already thinking about the design of next year's car and researching how to make it go faster!

Our kids did this in Awanas one year. It was so much fun! Andrew, your car looks great! Congratulations on your winnings!

I am sure it was really nice to spend that special time with your grandpa, too. Great memories!

Love,
