Great job Lessie Getting the Wheels in Motion. Mahalo for the update. Now that U have a date to work with things can move foward. I would emphasize to the classmates that reside in Oahu to get active in these early stages as well. Every meeting should have more & more participation. Everyone has a contact or resource or talent that they can contribute somehow. Truthfully everyone Expects it to happen but then again where were they when it was time to get involved. Considering we had a graduating class of 400 something there wasn't even a 5% turn out at this first meeting. I wish I did what Deena did and phoned in or Skyped in to your computer. Also. I saw on Michi Tsubo???? fb profile that he works in Vegas for some hotel (culinary) so maybe contact him to see if he has any insider contacts. Thanks girls for getting things started. If there's anything I can do to help just contact me.
