Free Passes to Honolulu Bishop Museum.

Marti Debenedetti has 6 free passes to Honolulu Bishop Museum through the end of 2022 she would like to share. The museum is open 9-5 daily but closed Thanksgiving and Christmas days.
” There’s no charge,” Marti said.  “I’d just love someone else to take it all in. It’s quite spectacular and fun stuff for youngsters too. It comes with a free parking pass too.”

If you are interested, email Marti at martiscorner@aol.com.

Shake, Rattle and Roll At Mauna Loa!

HONOLULU (KHON2) — Earthquake activity continues to increase at Mauna Loa, the world’s largest active volcano.
The latest daily report about Mauna Loa reveals there were 65 earthquakes in the past 24 hours. Mauna Loa is not erupting, and experts said an eruption is not imminent. But the U.S. Geological Survey has moved to daily updates, and Mauna Loa has been at a yellow “advisory” status.
“We do have this heightened unrest,” explains Ken Hon, with the USGS Hawaii Volcano Observatory, “and the volcano is more likely to accelerate into an eruptive state out of the heightened unrest.”
Mauna Loa’s most recent big eruptions were in 1975 and 1984, but whether the latest flurry of seismicity will result in a lava event is anyone’s guess.
“Go about your daily business,” Hon advised, “but kind of keep an eye out and keep your ears open for what might be going on.”

 

(We at Hualalai are far enough away to not be directly affected.)

Hawaii Food Banks Need Help!

Many in our community do not have enough food to put on their tables. And the food banks have empty shelves!

A food drive was held yesterday but it’s not too late to help. It’s easy to donate on line!

 

If you caught us on Hawaii News Now Sunrise on Friday, you saw the empty shelves in our warehouse. Inflation and food shortages are affecting us all, especially the most vulnerable in our communities.

We need your assistance today to fulfill our mission to nourish our ‘ohana and fight to end hunger.

Help Provide Food for One Million Meals

Here’s how to make a difference:

  • Donate Online – We’re able to stretch your dollar further through our partnerships. A donation of just $10 goes a long way — helping provide food for more than 20 meals.
  • Give Food Virtually – Our Virtual Food Drive allows you to donate some of our most-needed items from the safety and comfort of your home.
  • Advocate – Spread the word by tagging @HawaiiFoodbank and using the hashtag #GiveByExample.
