Marc Honma -- Operation Aloha


I was watching KHNL’s news tonight and saw our classmate Marc Honma talking about Operation Aloha, a terrific program that sends care packages to our military troops deployed in the Middle East. More on Operation Aloha and Marc’s Wholesale Unlimited business at: http://cybersnacks.net/operation_aloha.html. Mahalo to Marc also for his generous support toward A Touch of Iolani. (Pictured Wesley Tong and Marc Honma)

You can read the KHNL story here, where you'll also find a link to the extended video interview.

FW: A Message From The Touch of 'Iolani Committee

‘88ers –

Here’s a message we generated that is being sent to the Iolani alumni community via class reps. As you’ll see, it mentions the upcoming early-bird deadline to buy Touch tickets, the sellout of reserved tables (kudos to Kevin for spearheading that effort) and the decorations effort (Lei) that is really unprecedented for this event. This message doesn’t mention all of the other committees like Entertainment/Logistics (Denise/Jason/Vickie), Manpower (Cec/Brad), Class Attire (Branden), Food (Parker/Robin), Beverages (Greg/Umo), and Publicity (Mark F.) operating at full speed. Special credit goes out this week to Dawn and Kellie for raking in well over $10k in big ticket silent auction items. More on those items to follow.

If you haven’t purchased your tickets yet, get them soon because they are going to go fast and the event is going to be something our class can be proud of. Committee members are trying to sell their allotments, so contact any of them or me. One month to go!

Dear Class Reps:

Early Bird Discount Deadline Approaching! The Class of 1988 and the `Iolani Alumni Association enthusiastically encourage you to purchase your tickets to "A Touch of `Iolani," taking place on Saturday, August 4th. Mail your registration form and payment by June 30th to receive the early-bird discounted price of $55 per ticket. Online registration is also available.

Hope You'll Join The Fun!

The 12th Annual Touch, themed "Courtyard Pa`ina," will transform the courtyards of the Upper School into a tropical setting perfect for a local-style celebration, complete with delicious dishes, masterful music (including a special performance by Paul Shimomoto '86), and so many friends to talk story with.

The Touch planning committee is sending this special message to the alumni community in hopes of increasing alumni attendance at this year's event. Among the festivities will be the presentation of the Alumni Service Award to retired Bishop Richard S.O. Chang '59. Ticket sales are on pace for another sellout (all of the reserved tables allocated are now sold). Don't be too late ... get your tickets today!
