Cub Scouts

 Today was the cub scout "space derby".  Each scout makes a rocket and then they all get a chance to race.  Ben's rocket was made to look like Toothless from the movie How To Train Your Dragon.  He did not do well in the races.  We took notes and will do better next year.

 Brent helped.  To make the rockets go, a rubber band is twisted to turn the propeller.  Brent was the rubber band winder (which involved an electric drill).

 Ben did not win any speed awards but he did win a trophy for "most realistic".  I did not think we would get this award because our rocket was not a rocket, it was a dragon.  But they said it looked most like what is was supposed to look like.  We will take the trophy either way!

Ben gets his wolf badge:

Ben earned his wolf badge.  They put it on upside down until he does something nice for his mom or his dad.
