Pinewood Derby

Ryan and Dada have been working very hard on building a Pinewood Derby car for the scouts race. There were 40 cars competing. The race was held on a long ramp that extended across the gymnasium floor. Each car raced a number of times against the other cars until it was determined which cars were eligible to compete in the finals. Ryan had won first place in all of his preliminary runs. In the finals he came in second place during one run. He came home with the trophy for 2nd place and a blue ribbon for participation. It was truly exciting. We are all so proud of the hard work and good results experienced in the Pinewood Derby.


This is Ryan's best friend, Jack.
