Pinewood Derby Time


Mason's car (Number 23) sits among the other entries


This post is a little late, since the pinewood derby was months ago, but it still seems appropriate to mention Mason's experience. We had a three-ward competition. We would be racing four cars at a time on the track, and it seemed like Mason was always coming in third. But the track had an electronic timing system and it seemed like Mason's car was doing well from a time standpoint. When the times were summed up, Mason took seventh place out of 25 cars. Not too shabby for our first attempt. The top four finishers and six of the top eight were all from our ward.
