This year the scouts participated in the Rain Gutter Regatta instead of a Pinewood Derby. It was last night and it was fantastic!
Gage wanted his ship to have a pirate motif. He told Bill all the things he wanted and they got to work sanding and building and painting their boats.
Gage won 2nd place for the cubs.....or something. (My apologies for not being up on cub scout lingo!) Gage told me before we left that I was not to say things like "I am proud of you" or "great job" and I am not supposed to smile or cry at him either....and NO HUGGING - definitely not that! But I am pleased to report that he let me say all those things to him and I was so excited!
