Team Weasel Triumphs at SCARE
Team Weasel took the trophies for Fastest Run and Fastest Team in the senior competition at SCARE last Sunday against a small but intensely competive field of 8 carties.
20 carties took part in the Junior competition, mostly using carties built at the cartie building workshop earlier in the month, and the entry from Catterline School, built with the help of Team Weasel, was the convincing winner.

Stoney Soapbox Workshop
The soapbox workshop was great and everyone had a great time, and was also very effective way of getting lots more people involved. There is now a core of about 20 junior carties in Stonehaven, and I'm sure they'll be worked on, developed, raced and crashed for years to come, passed down to younger siblings, cousins, mates, etc.
I was driving through stoney only yesterday and saw one of them trundling along the pavement, being propelled but a swarmof small boys. Mademe smile, it did.
The cartie kits came from the organisers of the Kirkton of Skene Cartie Race. They may be able to help setting up something similar at Alford.
