Cub Scouts + the Pinewood Derby

I have a love/hate relationship with the Cub Scout Pinewood Derby. 
2 boys and 3 years, this is the first derby that a car didn't fall apart on the way down the track. For the first time, I got "mom, this is the best we have ever done". The last 2 years were full of tears and my oldest boy, Ethan, hiding in the car.
 Try & Try again is what we try to teach our boys. 


           

Look at those happy faces! Neither one of them won, they are just happy their tires didn't fall off!

Digital Scrapbooking is another form of "graphic design". Now that you have these wonderful talents, do people always volunteer YOU to create everything under the sun!?

Just as the Derby was starting, the Cub Master asks me if I brought the Pack Race Certificates- "huh"? I didn't get that memo.
"Oh, in our Scout Meeting,  _____ (i will leave them unnamed) said they were going to call you and have you make them, since you might know how."
Awesome.
So, I left the race and ran home to my photoshop. I busted out this certificate and printed up 15 just in time for the final race.

I figured I would share with any of you that may be stuck in this predicament anytime soon.
