Rocket Boy

When Will heard that Butch had arrived at camp by parachute, he decided that something had to be done. He disappeared into his workshop for several days, breaking only to ask for some superglue and a few common household chemicals. When he emerged, he couldn't wait to show off his invention!

The flight helmet sports a hands-free radio to keep in touch while flying. The joystick and control buttons put everything needed at the fingertips.

"Ignition!" Up!

UP! And away!

Will blasts off from the lanai and streaks over the Pacific Ocean, heading for Camp Ashgrove. Carried on the wind we hear him singing:

Roses are red;
Violets are blue.
I have a rocket pack!
Too bad for you!
