Rain Gutter Regatta

Sometimes called the Pinwood Derby of the fall, this activity has all the build and race excitement of it's winter brother.  The regatta is ussualy held in early October while the weather is still warm giving us some nice time outdoors before it changes.  Scouts are given a kit to build and decorate their very own racing sail boat.  Rain Gutters glued to boards and filled with water provide the "track" and the scouts provide the wind, the old fashioned way.  Scouts blow thier boats to the end of the track in a number of races and at the end there is trophies and ice cream for everyone.  Look on the Pack Calendar for dates, times and location.
