1st Pinewood Derby

On October 26th Maxwell participated in his FIRST Pinewood Derby. Although he didn’t place in any of the races, I couldn’t help feeling proud of him and his ability to create something unique on his very own. The gentleman who owned the derby track and assists the scouting program locally, approached My mom and Dad at the end of the event. He told then how impressed he was that they let their son take the lead in creating his “Spittin’ Fast Watermelon Car”. He kindly added,

“That’s what it’s all about, for each boy to learn from and feel proud of his accomplishment.” Way to go Max! We are so proud of you!
