Wind over matter...


This month Kenny and Arnold worked on a wind powered balsa wood sail boat that Kenny raced in our annual Cub Scout Raingutter Regatta. Although the kit provided everything we needed to create the small boat, it was the breathing excercises I made Kenny do all week that proved to be the key!

Two 10 ft fiberglass gutters filled with water made up the raceway and two cub scouts competed against each other at a time. With 35 entrants that night, Kenny did great coming in Second! His boat now sits proudly in our front room complete with that shiny new ribbon and childhood memories for a lifetime!
