RE: Spook O Ree

I will be bringing coffee pot, creamer, sugar and fresh ground coffee left over from Olowalu. Would like to set it up with someone who has a cabin. See you tonight! I also have apples, oranges and chips left over that will be available for our designated camp site.

Hi everyone,

 

First, please note that I have reserved the Maui Golf and Sports Park in Maalaea for our annual Christmas Party. It is Dec 10th from 10am - 1pm. We went for the early time slot hoping for better weather. We've had cool and windy days there later in the day.

 

Attached is the Spook O Ree registration form. There seemed to be a little confusion on this at camp, so just as a reminder:

-- This is a Council event, not a pack event. You need to sign up as a family and arrange payment with the Council. Registration and payment are due TUESDAY. Make checks out to "Boy Scouts of America".

-- Cabins are available in the order people sign up. I do not know how these will be allocated.

-- I don't know anything more than what's in the agenda (attached) or this email. Note the costume contest and Friday is BYO dinner.

-- Council did say that siblings can attend.

-- The registration is for both adults and children, so put both on your form and include that in your payment.
-- Take it to the Council service center (Mon-Fri, 8-4) or mail (might be too late for mail!) to:
Maui County Council, Boy Scouts of America
200 Liholiho Street
Wailuku, Maui, HI 96793
-- The Council said there are no medical or release forms to fill out. There are ALWAYS forms to fill out, don't be surprised if there is some medical/waiver form requested at check-in. 

-- Directions to Camp: http://www.mauipack14.org/home/directions-1

Just as a final note, expect the gate between camp and the parking lot to be closed, and you will need to walk in with your gear (100-200 yards or so). Pack accordingly.

I have some extra milk jugs for the activity. I don't know exactly how many are going, so I don't know how many we'll need. Mahalo to Linda for getting these for us.

Aloha All,

 

Please be sure to remind your parents that this event is a closed toed shoe event.  Also let them know to bring with them swim clothes to take advantage of the open swim if they choose too and their milk/ juice jugs, as many as they can even if they were not able to accumulate the 8-9 reccomended.

 

Camp rules will be in effect.  See you there for a ghoulish time.  Check in by family or unit at the Camp Office when you get to camp.  Please reverse into your parking stall in the event of an emergency evacuation. 

 

In Scouting,

Arrival

Howdy all: 

I can't make it right at noon, unfortunately. We should be out there by 1:30pm, but I have no control over the schedule of Julian's piano recital... Please don't call me unless it is a dire emergency, as I'll be rushing around myself and have a very busy day tomorrow. 

Michael Currier has agreed to be there by noon and feel free to bounce any questions off him. We should have a lifeguard there at noon (crossing our fingers!) for swimming. If you show up early, feel free to hit the beach as a family, but please stay out of the cabins, mess hall, and bathrooms until the event starts at noon. 

If you want to tent camp, just set up tents in the grassy area in front of the mess hall. 

Camp is under new management, so I can't promise things will work the way they have in the past. If everyone can bring a few bucks, we usually pass the hat for a tip for the staff. 

Don't forget your s'mores ingredients!

***IMPORTANT*** - Camp Olowalu

Hi everyone: 

If you are going to camp olowalu this weekend and you did not sign up last night, you need to let me know. We are only buying food for as many people as we have signed up!!! 

I need to know how many kids & adults will be present at camp for each of these meals. Please reply to this email with counts for:

-- Saturday dinner

-- Sunday breakfast

-- Sunday lunch

I'd rather have too much food than not enough. If your schedule is in flux, tell me you're coming, even if you aren't 100% sure. 

Sorry for any confusion if this wasn't clear. I will send out meeting notes tonight. 

thanks!

Reminder - Halloween party Wednesday

All: 

Reminder - The Halloween party is Wednesday 6:30pm, Kula Community Ctr

-- Come in costume (adults, too!)

-- Each den should have an activity the boys can do. They usually work like stations the boys move around to at will, but feel free to do different stuff. 

-- Potluck: Everyone bring a main dish. If you also want to bring extra stuff (pupus, salads, desserts, etc.), that's great, but please make sure you bring a main dish (we had one potlucks with 7 veggie platters...)

-- Bring mess kits (or whatever you want to eat on) for your family. The pack has some paper plates and plasticware we set out, but there are no guarantees there will be enough, and we really try to encourage environmentally friendly scouting events by washing our mess kits. Leave no trace!

Hiroko is leading the party decorations. I believe the plan is to set up around 8:30am after dropping off the kiddos at school. Her number is 264-9967 if you are interested in helping. I am planning to be up there by 5:45pm-ish to unlock the Center, but it is really hard for me to count on being out of work at a specific time.

Upcoming Dates

Hi all, 

We have now reserved Camp Olowalu for sure. We had a little back & forth with the deposit, so sorry it took so long to say we have that date 100% for sure. They have comp'ed us the last 2 years. While there is no promise they'll do so this year, we can't expect them to turn away paying customers while comp'ing us at the same time, so hopefully that explains the last-minute nature of reserving the date...

-- The Camp-out is noon Saturday to noon Sunday (22nd - 23rd). You can go early or stay late and hang out on the beach (or do whatever), but noon is both check-in and check-out for using the camp facilities. Details coming at the pack meeting. 

I will reserve a date for the water/golf park for the Christmas party. We usually do that right before people really start travelling for vacations in mid-Dec. 

Pinewood Derby 2012 is JAN 14. We will do our pack meeting on Friday, JAN 13 and have the track set up for trials. 

PARENTS: Setting up the track is ancient cub scout lore passed down from generation to generation. It ain't rocket science, nor is it simple. We will set it up about 3pm on Friday, Jan 13. I do not believe any Tiger, Wolf, Bear, or Webelos 1 parent has ever helped with the setup! If you want to hold a pinewood derby in 2013, I suggest you learn how in 2012. 

The rest of the dates for 2012 are now reserved, added to the pack calendar, and the Parks & Rec facility permits are scanned and posted on the documents page of the website.

There are four main things pending for 2012 dates that I can think of: 

-- Spring camp-out. We usually shoot for President's Day weekend (2/17- 2/19/2012). Camp is available then, but I haven't reserved it yet. 

-- Council events: We'll tell you as soon as we find out. Plan on Scoutorama in the spring, day camp in early June (3 weekdays), Webelos overnighter (usually first Sat-Sun in July), and then the fall events you've seen so far this year. 

-- Fall camp-out (Camp Olowalu, or wherever). Julian will have graduated and I'll be moving on, so parents will have to arrange this. 

-- Popcorn sales

I also reserved us for Keokea Park for an end-of-year party June 01.

Reminders - Oct 19 Pack Meeting

A few reminders: 

1) Please get your award reporting info to your den leader by Friday. Copy Stacy (sagemom1@yahoo.com) on that email. This is just for awards that are ready to be given to the boys. (Please keep your den leader up to date on partial progress toward awards, but that's not what we're asking for right now.)

-- I will order a bicycling belt loop for the boys who attended the bike rodeo. Please advise if I missed anyone: Dennis, Keahi, Hugh, William, Jack, Leo, Dane, Shenn, Shion, Carter, Jon, Noah, Julian

2) Den leaders: Compile this info for your den and get it to Stacy over the weekend. 

3) Party next week is a Halloween theme. 

-- Come in costume (adults, too!)

-- Each den should have an activity the boys can do. They usually work like stations the boys move around to at will, but feel free to do different stuff. 

-- Potluck: Everyone bring a main dish. If you also want to bring extra stuff (pupus, salads, desserts, etc.), that's great, but please make sure you bring a main dish (we had one potlucks with 7 veggie platters...)

-- Bring mess kits (or whatever you want to eat on) for your family. The pack has some paper plates and plasticware we set out, but there are no guarantees there will be enough, and we really try to encourage environmentally friendly scouting events by washing our mess kits. Leave no trace!

If you care why we're moving the event: 

I just dug out our facility permit for this year. A reservation for the community center for tomorrow was requested, but was not in the list of dates on the permit I have. They frequently put evening and daytime dates on different permits, and I am 99% sure that we have the center reserved for tomorrow, but I cannot find the correct permit. Last year, we had a run-in with an extremely irate McEnroe wanna-be from the tennis club who stopped just short of physical violence last year when we closed the parking lot. (He would have had to park on the street and walk 40 more feet to his tennis exercise.) After that, the police were called and complaints were made. Although Parks & Rec determined that we had every right to close the lot, we were still admonished for not having the permit in hand. Given our history on this matter, we feel like we need to have the permit in hand in order to hold the event there, and the parks & rec office isn't open until Monday. This is my bad for not being able to locate the permit, which I obtained over a year ago. Sorry for the mix-up.

A reminder about the bike rodeo (a.k.a. All Wheels Rodeo). 

-- Sunday (Oct 09) at 10am at the Kula Community Center

-- Volunteers, please show up at 9:15am

-- This is not a potluck (I've had several questions about this) - please get some food into your boys before coming to keep energy up. 

-- Siblings welcome. Close-toed shoes required for all (Scouts, siblings, adults...)

-- Helmets required. If you don't have one, we can probably share the helmets we have. 

-- Anything on wheels is ok (bikes, scooters, rollerblades, skateboards, etc). We had a question about an electric scooter, and decided that electric-powered devices are ok if the parents approve them, but no gas motors, please. 

 

A huge mahalo to Velva, who volunteered to get up there at 8 and close off the parking lot, as well as the others who signed up to lead this event.

Here are some notes/reminders/requests for help. Potential actions are in red.

 

1) Popcorn - Yesterday marked the start of our annual popcorn fundraiser. We have activities planned for the last two weekends in October, so please hit this hard in the beginning of the month. For more details, see last month's meeting announcements. If you need popcorn forms, let me know.

 

I really cannot emphasize enough that everyone's participation in popcorn sales makes our Scouting activities possible. Our bank account is doing ok, but not great. We have 3 main expenses in the year (2 camps and the Christmas party), but we are also interested in upgrading our pinewood derby track and a few other things. In order to make all this happen, we need a group effort to sell popcorn. If anyone runs a business or knows someone who does, these make great gifts to clients and colleagues.

 

Velva is arranging this, but if anyone wants to learn how it's done (for next year), that would be recommended.

 

2) All Wheels Rodeo (Bike Rodeo) - next Sunday 10am

-- We need a volunteer to get out there about 8am and close off the parking lot and maintain a presence so that other overflow parking needs don't derail our activity.

-- Need a volunteer to lead the bike and road safety part of this. I have hyperlinks and PDFs from past years, so the research is done...

-- If you have any bike tools, pumps, etc and the aptitude to use them (very basic), we could use another volunteer for the maintenance station.

-- Every boy needs a helmet! If you don't have one, buy/borrow one. If you have an extra, bring it. If you really can't get one, come anyway, and we'll loan you one from another boy.

 

3) Halloween costume party - Oct 19

-- Each den needs to arrange an activity. Lots of games and fun things are online (sample).

-- We have several volunteers to set up. We need one person to coordinate the effort and arrange times.

 

4) Camp Olowalu: Need someone to do a Costco/Supermarket run and get all the food to camp. Preferably someone in the tiger, wolf, bear, web1 dens to learn about planning the menu/budget for camps.

 

 

Parent volunteers: Each activity we do this year is the last one for the Webelos2 den and their families (including me!). In addition to volunteering for the sake of helping the Pack, this is a good chance for the families of the tiger, wolf, bear, and Webelos1 dens to learn how we run things from the parents who have been through this many times. Some events are more complicated (pinewood derby, campouts, popcorn), others are very simple. No activity in Scouting requires rocket science to organize, and our way isn't necessarily the best/only way to do it, so you'll do fine without us, but please take advantage of this time to learn how things work from us by volunteering.

In addition to volunteering for the sake of helping the Pack, this is a good chance for the families of the tiger, wolf, bear, and Webelos1 dens to learn how we run things from the parents who have been through this many times. Some events are more complicated (pinewood derby, campouts, popcorn), others are very simple. No activity in Scouting requires rocket science to organize, and our way isn't necessarily the best/only way to do it, so you'll do fine without us, but please take advantage of this time to learn how things work from us by volunteering.

IMPORTANT - bike rodeo - NEW LOCATION

We need to move the location for tomorrow's event. We have a quiet cul-de-sac in front of our house where we will hold the event. I apologize for the last minute change. Here are directions to my house from Kahului and a google maps link:

http://website.digitalics.com/directions

-- For those of you coming from Kula, just come to St Joseph church in Makawao and turn right on Piiholo at the church cemetery. That puts you on the 5th line of the directions.  

-- NOTE: It is a little tricky to get here. If you print the directions and follow them, you should have no trouble. People trying to use other methods (smart-phones, car navigators) frequently get lost. My home number is 573-5631 if you need help... Note that there are two Ehu Roads. We are off of the upper one. 

-- We will start at 10am. Volunteers, please arrive at 9:15. Plan on taking about 20 minutes from the intersection of Haleakala Hwy and Makawao Ave. 

-- Park along the street leading up to the cul-de-sac.

-- You might want to bring a folding chair and a jacket (we are at 1000m elevation!). 

-- Other than that, everything else is as described in the email below. 

If you care why we're moving the event: 

I just dug out our facility permit for this year. A reservation for the community center for tomorrow was requested, but was not in the list of dates on the permit I have. They frequently put evening and daytime dates on different permits, and I am 99% sure that we have the center reserved for tomorrow, but I cannot find the correct permit. Last year, we had a run-in with an extremely irate McEnroe wanna-be from the tennis club who stopped just short of physical violence last year when we closed the parking lot. (He would have had to park on the street and walk 40 more feet to his tennis exercise.) After that, the police were called and complaints were made. Although Parks & Rec determined that we had every right to close the lot, we were still admonished for not having the permit in hand. Given our history on this matter, we feel like we need to have the permit in hand in order to hold the event there, and the parks & rec office isn't open until Monday. This is my bad for not being able to locate the permit, which I obtained over a year ago. Sorry for the mix-up.

Subject: Reminder - bike rodeo

 

All: 

 

A reminder about the bike rodeo (a.k.a. All Wheels Rodeo). 

-- Sunday (Oct 09) at 10am at the Kula Community Center

-- Volunteers, please show up at 9:15am

-- This is not a potluck (I've had several questions about this) - please get some food into your boys before coming to keep energy up. 

-- Siblings welcome. Close-toed shoes required for all (Scouts, siblings, adults...)

-- Helmets required. If you don't have one, we can probably share the helmets we have. 

-- Anything on wheels is ok (bikes, scooters, rollerblades, skateboards, etc). We had a question about an electric scooter, and decided that electric-powered devices are ok if the parents approve them, but no gas motors, please. 

 

A huge mahalo to Velva, who volunteered to get up there at 8 and close off the parking lot, as well as the others who signed up to lead this event.

Here are some notes/reminders/requests for help. Potential actions are in red.

 

1) Popcorn - Yesterday marked the start of our annual popcorn fundraiser. We have activities planned for the last two weekends in October, so please hit this hard in the beginning of the month. For more details, see last month's meeting announcements. If you need popcorn forms, let me know.

 

I really cannot emphasize enough that everyone's participation in popcorn sales makes our Scouting activities possible. Our bank account is doing ok, but not great. We have 3 main expenses in the year (2 camps and the Christmas party), but we are also interested in upgrading our pinewood derby track and a few other things. In order to make all this happen, we need a group effort to sell popcorn. If anyone runs a business or knows someone who does, these make great gifts to clients and colleagues.

 

Velva is arranging this, but if anyone wants to learn how it's done (for next year), that would be recommended.

 

2) All Wheels Rodeo (Bike Rodeo) - next Sunday 10am

-- We need a volunteer to get out there about 8am and close off the parking lot and maintain a presence so that other overflow parking needs don't derail our activity.

-- Need a volunteer to lead the bike and road safety part of this. I have hyperlinks and PDFs from past years, so the research is done...

-- If you have any bike tools, pumps, etc and the aptitude to use them (very basic), we could use another volunteer for the maintenance station.

-- Every boy needs a helmet! If you don't have one, buy/borrow one. If you have an extra, bring it. If you really can't get one, come anyway, and we'll loan you one from another boy.

 

3) Halloween costume party - Oct 19

-- Each den needs to arrange an activity. Lots of games and fun things are online (sample).

-- We have several volunteers to set up. We need one person to coordinate the effort and arrange times.

 

4) Camp Olowalu: Need someone to do a Costco/Supermarket run and get all the food to camp. Preferably someone in the tiger, wolf, bear, web1 dens to learn about planning the menu/budget for camps.

Camp Olowalu

All:

 

We are tentatively scheduled for camp on Oct 22-23. Hooray! It is now on the pack calendar at http://mauipack14.org. More details will follow once we get this firmed up. Sorry for the last-minute notice, as we are working around the camp's schedule to find a date that works. They have comp'ed us the last few years, but that means we have to be flexible about taking the dates they are open.

 

This is one of the highlights of the year for the boys. We get to camp right on the beach! Does anyone have a current (unexpired) lifeguarding certification? Anyone have any personal contacts with a lifeguard who might want to earn a few bucks? We must have a lifeguard for all swimming activities.
