Regatta Race




We have taken about 6 weeks off from scouts, but with the summer winding down, and school starting up, it is time to get back into the swing of things. We started with a scout activity this Saturday at our house. The boys came over and made the little balsa wood boat kits (designed for the smooth water of a rain gutter). We painted and glued, then headed down to the creek for a little race. Unfortunately these boats had a little trouble staying upright, keeping their sails, and remembering to float downstream! The cubmaster was a good sport though and followed them down, we only had three that didn't make it and after walking back up stream we found them hiding in the brush. I think a pretty good time was had by all.
