Well, in January our Den had it's annual Pinewood Derby race. Aaron and Andy worked on their car for weeks. Then the day of the race came. We signed in, weighed our car and sat back to watch the races. Every car raced in each lane! The wolves race was very exciting. Aaron and a car with legos were neck and neck in every race, with Aaron's car pulling away at the last second. After many heat the winners were announced and Aaron received 1st place against all the wolves. Woo Hoo! So that afternoon he was to race against all the first place cars in the finals.
The finals were also very exciting. Every time Aaron and this one car would race, they would alternate who got first. Aaron's won one race the other car another. In the end the other car proved to be the fastest and Aaron received second place overall. The top 3 cars in the finals got to go onto the district level. We were very excited!
