3rd Hanapi Reunion Committee Meeting Highlights

 

Dee Slater, Darrel/Dory Farias, Eli Kikuchi, Diane Hughes

We had our meeting at cousin Eli's home in Lihue about 4:30 pm this past Sunday on 6/23/13. This is where the registration will take place Friday, July 19, 2013. We're seeking ways to modify our plans to keep our costs low so that as many of the Ohana can come to the Hanapi reunion.

We also would like as many on Kauai island to come and take part in the festivities so that they can also meet those coming from the other islands as well as the mainland.

We plan on providing information about Kauai, the locations where the activities will be and how you can get there. You'll also be able to visit areas where our Kupuna are buried and where they lived.

 Many of us still live in Anahola where they settled after moving from Molokai. Aunty Mary Ahana's story of how Rev. Robert Puuki Hanapi and Rev. George Puuloa Hanapi came to Kauai after graduating from the Chief's School at Lahainaluna on Maui.
