Thank the Volunteers
The best time to thank the volunteers is at the end of the race while all the scouts are still in the room. I also suggest that at your next pack meeting, you present each volunteer with a certificate, patch, or trophy thanking them for the hard work! This is always a good way to get people to sign up again to help!

Analyze the event
As soon as possible after race day, get every volunteer together and go over each part of the process. Keep good notes about what worked and what didn’t work as expected. As you build the notes from year to year, you will develop a pattern on how to have a successful race with as little “reinvention of the wheel” as possible. A second benefit to good organization of notes is that new members of the derby committee can jump in and do a good job the first year.
