3 Derby Updates: Any volunteers?

I have 3 Pinewood Derby Updates:

(1) There will be a "weigh in" the evenings of January 20 (a Wednesday) and January 21 (a Thursday) between 6:00pm and 8:00pm each night. The location for this weigh-in is still to be determined. Here is what will happen: your Scout's car will be weighed and collected. You will not see your car again until race day. Scouts will be permitted to place their cars on the track for their races.

(2) Chuck Canode will bring a scale to Monday's Den Meeting if you would like to weigh your car. Simple weights can be purchased at Michaels, Hobby Lobby, and the Scout Shop. These include weight you can screw in, drill a hole and stick in, and even peel and stick weights.

(3) And finally, the Pack is looking for volunteers to help out the day of the race. We're looking for score keepers, finish line judges, staging coordinators, and refreshments volunteers. We could also use some volunteers for the weigh-in. Can you help? Shoot me an e-mail at tkeller@ij.org if you can volunteer and I'll hook you up with Scott Bomberg who is chairing the Pinewood Derby Committee.
