Violet's ice cream truck actually made it over the finish line. I was concerned it would not. In fact of the four races it came in second three times. Crazy.
Won for Most Original Design.
Three girls in our troop won awards. Yay!

GIRL SCOUT GLITTER GRAND PRIX
Our race is Saturday. There is no way this is going to be fast :D So not aerodynamic and I'm not even going to try. Our goal is to make something fun. Ice Cream truck was all her idea and she thought of it after last years race.
I designed the stickersin Photoshop. Added a pickle to the menu. Kind of inside joke on our street about our Ice Cream man.
336. A nod to our troop.
She did not enjoy sanding. Added bass wood to the top to make it look like a truck.
Time to paint.
Then glitter the whole thing.
So the truck was over weight. Which I expected it to be. Had to drill out the bottom. The bottom is not pretty. Originally we made an ice cream cone out of Sculpey, but it was just too heavy. Decided to go with cardboard and a pom pom. Still cute! I'll post pics of the race Saturday.
