PRESS RELEASE 2.18.11

Women of Wai`anae’s 'Hearts, Champagne, and Tea' Fundraiser A Huge Success

The Women of Wai`anae (WOW) fundraiser lunch and tea on 2/13/11was a huge success, raising $1,590 for WOW scholarships! Organizers of the event were Angela Ascrider and Rosalie Smith, and other volunteers included Pat Patterson, Sandy Ducharme, Mary Ellen Apostol, Chico Rivera, Angela Hoppe-Cruz, Maile Shimabukuro, Summer Miles, Nanette Geramonte, Lika Jordan, Georgia Campbell, Donna Costa, and Karen Young. Many others volunteered or otherwise supported the event by donating food, silent auction items, money, and providing other support.

Kahumana Cafe generously donated the use of their venue, and musician Rocky Holmes donated a performance. Rocky’s soulfull, jazzy tunes on saxophone and flute were thoroughly enjoyed.

Previous WOW scholarship winners Errol Kia`i Lee and Moana Gaspar spoke to the crowd. Kia`i talked about his plans to become a social worker, and Moana shared that she obtained a Masters in Counseling Psychology.

Don and Delora Hutton were in attendance, and Don did a wonderful job videotaping the event.

The silent auction featured beautiful donations from WOW members and supporters, and raised an impressive $416.

The event ended by recognizing the winner of the “funniest hat” contest, Dorothy Walters. Dorothy’s hat was a whimsical topper made of swirls of paper that she made herself.

Photos and video of the event can be found on WOW’s website, http://wowaianae.blogspot.com/.

People's Path City Grant Submitted on June 1, 2009

WOW submitted a grant request for the People's Path, which will span the entire Wai`anae Coast of O`ahu from Nanakuli to Makaha. It will connect the state’s planned bike path ending at Lualualei Naval Road to the rest of the coastline, making use of city and state lands and integrating with existing public services infrastructure where possible. This project’s objective is to produce a multi-use, recreational path that is a 90% Type I Bike path with a width of 10 feet and will utilize low-maintenance stratum such as concrete.
The request comprised the following documents:

1. Cover Letter to the City

2. WOW Certificate of Good Standing

3. Executive Summary

Dennis is donating a futon couch for the yard sale. It's in good condition, and he's bringing it over this weekend. It's open for presale -- anyone interested can make an offer ! Thanks again, Dennis !

Donations

A huge donation for our upcoming Yard Sale from Dennis Miyashiro of Wai'anae Rotary.
