This past April of 2015, all of our Cub Scouts celebrated Genius Night.
Each Scout was given a list of items they could use to create their own invention such as Q-tips, plastic forks, gallon-size milk, cartons, jugs, caps, buttons of any kind, standard-size paper clips, toothpicks, paper plates, paper towel empty roll, rubber bands of any kind or length,
and so many other regular items which can be used to
create other things.

This past March of 2015, all of our Scouts revved their engines as they prepared for our annual Pinewood Derby. Each year Parents work with their boys on building a car from a kit which includes a block of Pinewood. Scouts get experience in the use of hand tools, and realizing their own designs. Then on the big day we hold the race to see how fast their cars fly down the track!
