"This is one of those opportunities we've been working towards to help our community more when they need us its unfortunate it had to be like this and as soon as we heard about it all of us jumped on and serving community as best we can" commented scout Chaysen Tanaka. 

"Boy Scouts say there is still much to be done to help others on Maui, and they will continue serving their community."

"On Oct. 19, Carnival Cruise Line welcomed 30 scouts from the Aloha Council of the Boy Scouts of America for a visit on board Carnival Miracle while the ship was docked in Kahului. The visit was a gesture of appreciation for the group’s assistance with providing needed supplies following the wildfires in Maui.

The scouts volunteered with Direct Relief to provide needed recovery kits with respiratory masks, gloves and other supplies after the fires."

Some rowboat. Might be able to carry a council?
