Raingutter Regatta






Last night, the boys had their monthly pack meeting for Cub Scouts. However, this month they got to do their Raingutter Regatta. In case you have not been privelaged to be a part of this, it is where the boys make boats out of balsa wood(?). Then they race their boats in a raingutter by blowing it with a straw. It is a fierce competition, let me tell you!

Did our boys win? Well, no. But they had fun. And that is all that matters right? Ethan's boat was named "the Mayflower" and Connor's was "the Red Rocket". Ben only had 2 colors of spray paint, so they were very Christmas-y boats. They were cute cheering each other on. My favorite part was at the end of each heat, where the boys would all breathe heavy as if they had just run a marathon.:)

So that is it for our social engagements for a while!
