Nathan Y., Noah J., and Austin K. coordinated the troop sponsoring a raingutter regatta for the Barrington Kidfest as part of their Star rank project. The raingutter regatta is always a popular event with the children at Kidfest. In preparation for the event the scouts had to coordinate the communication within the troop for prepping the materials, figuring out what materials were needed, coordination of voluteers at the event, and setup/teardown at the event.
The raingutter regatta allows children to build boats out of pool noodles and then attach a paper sail by stick or straw. Then the kids can race the boats in the water.
