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.
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.
