Rocket Picnic - Fffwoooosh!

Hey look, it's another scouting outing. This time, the entire Pack 132 got together for the annual rocket picnic. All of the scouts and siblings put together their own rockets and are allowed 2 launches during the event. We put Josh's rocket together about a week and a half before the event so we would make sure that all of the glue was dry.

Before everybody lined up to launch their rockets, we enjoyed a potluck style lunch/dinner anchored with hot dogs. Standard fair all the way around so there wasn't anything extraordinary in regards to food. All the kids were briefed on the rules of the rocket launches and they lined up for their first launch.

After the launches (Josh only did one, as he just wanted to play with his friends) the held a garbage cleanup contest with a 'prize' for the most garbage picked up. Not a bad idea to get all the kids to do a little bit of good for the park.

It was a good day.
