Track Safeguarding Opportunity
Dear Pack 731,

(Final reminder - the Pinewood Derby is TOMORROW. See earlier posting. This is something else...)
We have a golden opportunity for someone to save the pack some money and be one of Pack-Man's favorites ;) We are looking for someone to take on the honor of safeguarding the Pinewood Derby track. Andy Russell has provided a home to the track for the last couple of years and has finally allowed someone else to do it ;) Seriously though, thank you Andy.
The good news is....... I have seen the track and it is not as scary as one might think. I have taken the measurements and they are as follows:
The track is in a box measuring 97" X 24" X 6". The accessories are in a box measuring 32" X 18" X 7". There are also a couple of 10 or 20 lb weights that are separated from the other boxes. Not too bad.
So, if you can take this on, please contact anyone on this year's Pinewood Derby Committee: Mike Byers (mlbyers@hotmail.com), Tom Phillips (tcpiv@comcast.net) , or John Panek (john.panek@ngc.com).
Thank you.

Mike Byers
