| Hello Great Shimiji Nation, The Papoose Tribe had a very fun time at the Pinewood Derby this month, which had a lot of excitement for all. But, first we began the month by going to a very fun and educational animal wildlife show put on by the wonderful folks a "The Nature of Wildworks". The show was right here in Simi Valley, in packed auditorium, at Santa Susanna Park. The show included many types of wild animals, that still live around us, such as hawks, an owl, a snake, a skunk, some not so wild doggies, and a possum. We also all learned that a possum has a very very short memory, and can not even remember what happened to it from the day before. So, every day is really a new day for a possum!! Laughing Panda (Josh) really liked seeing the skunk, and Sparkling 'lil Butterfly (Ellie) had a nice visit with some of the puppy dogs after the show. Then, it was time to start getting our pinewood derby cars ready for the Federations awesome Pinewood Derby race. Sparkling 'lil Butterfly (Ellie) cheered on her sister Trinity, as they raced in their first Pinewood Derby. And, Laughing Panda did a fabulous job with his cool orange car that won 1st Place in the Kindergarden class. Not too bad for a 3 year old. Laughing Panda's luck continued, as he finished the day with the second fastest car in the whole Pinewood Derby race. Laughing Panda did a lot of great work on his car the week leading up to the race, and that night he slept with his Second Place trophy on his pillow!!! A great job was done by all the competitors. Also, if you know any kids, ages 3 - 4 years old, that you think would really enjoy this great Indian Guide program, and join in the fun that we have each month, please let them know about the Papoose Tribe. We always welcome new members. That's all for now, Wise Panda, Pink Panda, & Laughing Panda "Papoose Tribe Chiefs" |
