Hi Troop 75,
I hope you all enjoyed the hot and humid weekend! It was nice and breezy at the Momilani Community Center last weekend, but it was still very hot! I just want to say a HUGE THANKS to all the Scout's and Parents who came out last weekend to help with the Container clean up.
We had a very nice turn out and got the task accomplished faster than anticipated. Outstanding team work Troop 75! We sanded the surface with home made sanding blocks. We cut small pieces of 2X4 left over from the Makahiki Robot Track Project, and stapled sandpaper to them. Thank Jeffrey Eshelman for the great idea.
The Boys teamed up and sanded one Container at a time. Our task was to rough the surface for better paint stickiness. The Containers we're 40 feet long and 10 feet high. It was a lot of area to sand. The Adults did all the high sanding including the roof. It took about an hour for each Container. Then we Power Washed the surface. The Containers look new! Great Job Troop 75! The Pearl City Lions Club, along with the Troop 75 Adults will primer and paint each Container at a later date.
A HUGE THANK YOU to Jeffrey Eshelman, Dave Masaki and Ken Nagamine for bringing their Power Washers. It made the job so much easier and faster. Thank You to Ben Ronquilio for the Coffee and Pasteries. The Eshelman Ohana for the snacks. Mahalos to the Parents who brought the Dust Masks, their Ladders and Power Tools. Thanks to Jake Tamaye and Ben Ronquilio for taking the pictures. Thanks to Tammy Kaetsu for bringing the Cooler and ice. Thank You very much everyone! It was an awesome team effort! The Project was a huge success!
Enjoy the rest of your week!
