I christen thee... Rainbow Roop!

Day 16
In honor of our Cub Scout, who is now a Wolf Cub! 

They had our Cub Scout advancement ceremony today.  All the boys get their patch for completing the den that they are in and it officially marks their advancement to the next den.

We had a nice ceremony, lunch, and what was almost a trip to the hospital!  Clayton was on the jump house outside and was running into the building with no shoes on- South African style- and bashed his big toe on the concrete!  Boys did he split it open!  Thankfully it didn't need stitches and didn't break anything but boy was he hurtin'.

Back to Scouts; they have a race called the Rain Gutter Regatta.  The boys and their adult helper build these little balsa wood boats from a kit.  Then they have to use a straw and blow them to the other end of the rain gutter.  Clayton didn't win the big race but he did get honorable mention for his design.  He christened his boat the Rainbow Roop.
