Our First Rain Gutter Regatta

As part of this months pack meeting the cub scouts and each of their siblings got to make a little wooden boat and then race it down some rain gutters.  You would have thought this was the most thrilling things in the world to do.  All three of the older kids and even Molly had a boat and attempted to puff, puff, puff it down to the other end.

I am assuming the cubs do this every year, so I am sure we will see many more little wooden boats.  Cub scouts sure has added some fun times to our schedule!

They each brought their little boats home and couldn't wait until they could paint them. They pestered and pestered me about it so finally I let them paint them. They are planning to modge podge them next so they are sealed and will be sea worthy a little longer. Or at least that is the plan.
