In addition to the last day of basketball, last Saturday was also the Pinewood Derby. Jacob was a bit more involved in the creation of the car this year (the black blur that was Darth Vader in the green lane below).
He placed third in his den, which means he got a trophy, though we think it was a very close race between third and fourth places. Jacob stuck around for the finals with all the dens (top three race again) but alas he did not place in the overall.
The boys in his den who got 1st and 2nd also got 1st and 2nd overall -
so there were some fast racers in his group. I think his stellar performance
last year had him assuming that he'd place again this year, so it was
nice for him to get a trophy in his den and also nice to experience not
winning overall (ultimately, he said he placed 10th).
