Charity Walk Update

Great news! We have 19 scouts, 4 siblings, and 16 adults preregistered for the Visitor Industry Charity Walk this Saturday the 18th! 

We also have 6 volunteers to serve as course marshals.  Course marshal shift is from 6:00am to 11:30pm.  Please check in and meet at the volunteer registration table near the tennis courts at McCoy Pavilion at 6:00am.  The table will be located on the right side of the restroom trailer.  Come early to eat before your shift.  Once you have checked in, a mini bus will transport you to your designated areas.  The bus will pick you up at the end to take you back to the park for lunch.

Visitor Industry Charity Walk

Aloha Scouts and Parents,

The Visitor Industry Charity Walk is coming up fast! All forms and money are due this Friday, May 10th.  The cost will be $25 for scouts and $35 for adults.  Teresa Terakubo will be collecting forms and payment on Friday.

On the day of the walk (Saturday, May 18), we will meet at 6:15 AM on the mauka side of the former IBM building on Auahi St.  Parking is allowed at the Hawaii Convention Center, Ala Moana Beach Park, Magic Island and Ala Moana Shopping Center on the ground floor on the Macy's side.  Write down "Charity Walk" on a slip of paper and leave it on your dashboard.  First Hawaiian Bank at Ward and Ala Moana has also generously offered to let us use their parking.  Park only in stalls marked for First Hawaiian Bank and leave a slip of paper marked "Charity Walk. Parking Approved By Ward Court Management" on your dashboard.

All scouts must wear Class B Shirts and covered shoes.  Scouts must walk with a buddy.  Siblings should walk with their families.  You will want to bring a bag for the goodies from the 18 checkpoints.  One of the ASMs will give you your checkpoint card the day of the walk (if you took yours home early, remember to bring it).  Completed checkpoint cards will be turned in at the end of the walk for a plate lunch.

The finish will be at McCoy Pavilion Keyhole area in Ala Moana Park.  We will be finishing around 10:30 ish, but actual ending times will depend on the pace of the individual walkers.  Please check out with a ASM before leaving with your parents.

See you there!

Drive Up Camp

Aloha scouts and parents.  Don't forget about our next drive up camp on May 11 -12.  This will be a great chance for new scouts to complete their cooking requirements as this can only be done at a camp.  Sign up at tomorrow night's meeting or online.
