A Hole In One
On Saturday, August 23, 2008, Hui Makaala
held its annual fellowship golf tournament at Kapolei G.C., chaired
by Ryan Okunaga and Dolly Moe. We were fortunate to have 88 golfers
comprising Hui Makaala members, HUOA members and other friends.
Conditions were great on a beautiful day. When all was said and
done, the winning teams were (in order of finish):
Team Nago (Aldrick) 43.8
Ameriprise (Eric Fujimoto) 46
Team Goya (Lissa) 47.2
Team Miyazono (Jr.) 47.4
Menehune Mac (Neal Arakaki) 47.6
Team Itomura (Jon) 47.8
All in all, everyone had a great time
reacquainting with old friends and also making new ones. Many thanks
to our host, Kapolei G.C. and all of our volunteers (see below) for
organizing our event and special thanks to all of our generous
donors (see below). Most of our proceeds and donors go back into the
tournament, however, whatever is in excess does towards our
scholarship program. Don't forget to sign up early next
year...space is limited! Hope to see you all next year!
