There was a discussion on what went well and what we could do better. Some thoughts were to separate the BB Gun into a different day event, making the event shorter, do things on a rotation basis with set times, etc. To solicit parents feedback, I created a survey.

Regional and National
New emphasis on building relationships and moving from good to great and not overdoing the quantity of activities. We took this to heart and only planned two sectional activities.
2010 Pinewood Derby
Pointers for organizing 2010 event -- Continue to do each grouping by themselves, use only 1 track, final race off at the end, consider rotating groups thru stations where it will work, have 8 targets for BB gun and all guns & glasses to insure it runs smoothly and quickly, have an electronic race using the We (Eric to research), obstacle course, basketball - 3 on 3 and Free throw competition, cardboard house competition.
New Business:
Outreach to new churches -- Steve will research the PCCNA and find other churches we can contact and assign just one per person for those interested in seeing the RR ministry expand in the Delmarva Section. If a church is interested we will schedule presentations and help them get started.
Sectional Website
Steve Steffel will contact Pastor Satryan to see if webmaster can update our site with new information.
