Bible Bowl

Last weekend, Calvin and I went south for our first experience with Bible Bowl. In order to participate in Bible Bowl one has to be a Pathfinder. Calvin's friend Cassidy went down too. They were the team, only two of them. We were the tiniest group and techinically to small.
There has to be at least three in their club for Bible Bowl. But the directors let them experience what it was all about. In this picture they were feeling butterflies in their stomachs. They were pretty excited. They both studied hard for Bible Bowl. It was on the book of John and I, II & III John.
Here they are with their "runner" She was the one that took their answers to the judges who tallied up their points. There were about eight clubs present. Each of them had about 6-8 people.
The next day Cassidy and Calvin had Pathfinder honors day.
During lunch time they had the Pinewood Derby car race. Calvin's car got a couple of awards. He got second place for creativity and first place for craftmanship. He was pretty excited about that.
Calvin and Cassidy are going to work on their friends to be part of Bible Bowl. If their friends would do it, they could have a nice sized group! Its a great way to incorporate reading the Bible.

Calvin, great job. I'm so proud of you. How about another picture of that car - a close up so we can see the details a little better? And wow! look at your hair! I need some of that on my head where I'm missing some!

Love, G-Pa O
