Boy Scouts Rain Gutter Regata

Who knew Boys Scouts was so competitive? Sunday was the "Rain Gutter Regatta" where the boys raced their model boats against one another. The top three got trophies, guess which place Jack came in... yeap, fourth. He got a ribbon, and the 5th and 6th place got nothing. I've never seen such fierce competition. Some older boys were crying when they were eliminated. And the funny part, the Dads of course did most of the paint work. It was windy and cold, but later Jack learned the lesson that participating is winning too!

Here is Jack's boat, The Black Pearl.

And Jack's expression at coming in 4th. (So sad!)

Here is a clip of Jack's first race which he won!
