We got to go with Davis' Tiger 2 den to the Alabama/Auburn hockey game. This was at the Pelham Skating Center...which is huge! How have I have not known about this place. Anyway, the kids got to go in the men's locker room before the game, and how do you think it smelled?
We also started on our PineWood Derby Cars. Davis made the "CrossShark" as it had a fin like a shark, and a cross on the front. Sam made the "Black Widow" and it was all black, and shaped pretty well. I made the "Big Whale" that Belle helped me paint. We were unable to go to the Derby as we were at Disneyworld that weekend, but Davis won 2nd Place in his den! Sam did not win, but two guys in the bear den got 1st and 3rd in the pack...and we have some crazy dads that are way into this stuff. As for the "Big Whale", I was told he lost every race of the "Akela" (leader) races. And at one point a wheel fell off going down the track. :)
Sam and Davis also participated well at the February den meeting where they got to tell about their favorite folk tales. Sam picked Casey Jones, and Davis couldn't think of his favorite. I try to give each of the boys an opportunity to get in front of the den to present something, and I think it is really helpful for Sam and Davis.
