Raingutter Regatta for Boy Scouts

 Finally assembly, the night before the race.  Sadly I don't have pictures of the painting stage-was a little scared of what would happen to the camera if it was that close to boys and cans of spray paint!

 Finished products-Scott's on the left and Ryan's on the right

 Practicing in the bathtub

 Set up the next morning!

 Boat registration

 Greg took lots of pictures of the other boats for engingeering ideas!

 Below are the boys sitting with their dens

 They each received their first badge and were very proud of it!

 Doing their den cheers-Ryan's den is a little quieter and more reserved than Scott's

 Here is what Ashley did through a lot of the races-she can spend hours reading and coloring!

 The race was double elimination-all the boys started out racing against others their age and then best from each group went on.  Ryan won one of his races.

 Here are the boys showing off their boats and their new Scout shirts.  Their official uniforms should be ready soon!

 Scott won 2 of his races

 They both had a great time that day!

 Awards for fastest boat, best design, and scouts choice were given out at the end!
