Dick will share with us the ins and outs of managing the Koloa Mill Run 5k 10k.  RC Kauai is considering discontinuing this event.  It's in our back yard, and a worthy activity.

Consider picking up this Event for RC Poipu Beach

Quick review of the financial statements:

·       The only money that we made was from sponsors.  They are critical to making a profit.  Dupont-Pioneer (Laurie) has zero dollars this year.  Not even sponsoring for the parade.  Wilcox/PCH also has no money due to the labor strikes.

·       The cost of food, police, water, shirts, timer, etc. has increased significantly, especially since the Covid years.   Police cost was up 27% for the parade in 2024. 

·       The number of runners has decreased as we raised the entry/registration price

Operational considerations:

·       A date for the run needs to be set.

·       To have a location for the start of the run must be reserved several months to a year ahead of time when using the county property.

·       New measurements for the half-marathon must be made.

·       T-shirts need to be ordered well in advance.

·       The trucks used in the past are not available.  New sources will have to be found.

·       A location to load/pack and distribute race packets needs to be arranged well in advance.

·       Music needs consideration.

Assets – people:

·       On the day of the run, it takes several people to work the aid stations and control center. 

·       People for rubbish clean-up must be assigned.

·       Some individuals need to be ready to deliver and serve beverages and food.  That includes water at each aid station.

·       Someone must dedicate their time to accepting phone calls for weeks before and the day of the race.

·       A race director is critical.  Someone needs to take leadership.

Taking care of the Turtles/Honu  Signage for Poipu Beach Park, and all
