Raingutter Regatta

It was a day in the park for Cub

 Scouts from St. Columbkille.

They were there to compete in 

the annual Raingutter Regatta.

All the races finished with chocolate!

The Cub Scouts will kick off their new year

 on Monday at 7 p.m. in the Social Hall.

Raingutter Regata

Our Cub Scouts gathered for some splashpad fun and play...

 ... before getting some food.

Then it was time for the Raingutter Regata as contestants raced their sailboats.

 It was an event so fun even 

Fr Dave had to get in on it.

Raingutter Regatta!

Part of SPLASH! Thursday at the Schwer

Splash Pad was the Raingutter Regatta.

Scouts designed an decorated their boats for the event ...

 

 ... and provided the windpowere to move them along.

 

Thank you to everyone who participated

and helped make the gathering possible.

On Your Mark, Get Set, Blow

Last night the Cub Scouts gathered for

a Summer Splash at the Schwer Splash Pad.

After playing and a meal they had their First Raingutter Regatta! Each scout was offered a free kit that included all the supplies to build their boat. At the race, the scout blew on the boat's sail to propel their craft down the gutter.
 

There was a lot of excitement in play as the overall winner

received a 2 liter bottle of pop and a straw.
