ncient Hawaiians used winds to
recognize and heed messages of
warning, blessings and things
to come. The 23rd annual Ka Hula Piko
festival brought the Molokai community, along with visitors from around the
world, together to celebrate hula traditions and how Hawaiians today are connected to kupuna of the past through the
elements.
“The wind and the elements are so important in our lives and our ancestors made
connections to them…that taught us to
mind the protocol and be aware of these elements when they are in action,” said Kumu
Hula Elsie Ryder, hoòpaà, or chanter, of
Halau Hula O Kukunaokala. “Our ancestors and Ke Akua communicate with us
through the elements.”
This year’s theme for the event was
“Ku I Ke Kiu,” honoring the northwestern
Kiu wind, or scout wind, that welcomed
travelers to Puù Nana, the birthplace of
hula, in the ancient days. Hawaiians built an
intimate relationship with the winds which
helped them to farm, fish, navigate. Caring
for the environment is a kuleana Hawaiians
can share through hula, according to Ryder.
“Be sensitive to the sea, the breeze, the
rain and understand what is happening
around you,” she said. “That protocol will
teach [younger generations] how to act because they were taught from their kupuna
to respect the earth through the hula traditions. It’s through the hula that we are able
to express the love of our ancestors.”

Dancing With the Winds
Island shared their talents and traditions
with hundreds of attendees at last Saturday’s hoòlaulea event held at Lanikeha in
Hoòlehua. As festival-goers browsed Molokai vendors and food booths, they were serenaded by local musicians and performances
by Hawaiian immersion students.
Through ancient Hawaiian hula, oli and
moòlelo, attendees were immersed in Hawaiian culture and the celebration of hula’s
origins during the three-day event.
“Here we are on Molokai where, according to our traditions, hula began,” said Ryder.
“If you look at the island chain Molokai is the
piko. It’s the center. It connects all the islands.
Ka Hula Piko acknowledges those progenitors that kept records of the past, preserved it
thorough hula and oral chant traditions and
handed it down through generations.”
According to legend, hula was born on a
sacred hill at Kaàna, and the art of the dance
was later spread throughout Hawaii by the
goddess Laka.
“We honor Molokai as the birthplace
of hula, however we understand Laka did
travel to the other islands and that every island has their own rich traditions,” said Dion
Dizon, alakaì for Hula Halau Kukunaokala
and volunteer organizer. “By inviting kumu
Tante’s at Hotel Molokai
By Catherine Cluett | Editor-In-Chief
Almost two years after the kitchen
at Hotel Molokai was burned in a devastating fire, the restaurant and bar is
seeking a fresh start with new management, and reconstruction is anticipated
to begin next month.
Tante’s Island Cuisine, a familyoperated restaurant on Maui, took over
management of the former Hula Shores
Bar on April 15, in partnership with a
Molokai family. Owner Tante Urban
said with a motto of “good service, good
food and good price,” he looks forward
to serving hotel guests and locals alike.
Husband and wife Clint and Starlet
Luczon Joao and Starlet’s sister Natalie
Luczon are assisting with management
of the bar and restaurant, now known as
Tante’s at Hotel Molokai. Starlet called
the new arrangement “a family affair,”
and the three said they are happy for
this opportunity to return home after
living off-island.
“I’m excited about this partnership,” said Hotel Molokai General Manager Michael Drew. “It is a great fit for
hula from other islands… [Ka Hula Piko
provides] a broad experience for the general
public in terms of educating people.”
Ka Hula Piko -- founded by the late
Kumu Hula John Kaimikaua in 1991, whose
ohana is from Molokai -- kicked off this year
with a cultural excursion to Kaàna and a
series of lectures from esteemed kumu hula
on Thursday and Friday.

what I’ve tried to build here. I expect
nothing but success for both Tante’s and
the community that we both love.”
Construction Coming Soon
After many delays in the rebuilding of the kitchen after the 2012 fire,
Drew said some revisions to the original
design have been made and submitted
to Maui County for review. He said he
hopes construction will start by June
1, and anticipates completion will take
about eight months.

ased on statistics, this year’s
hurricane season beginning in
June brings extra cause to be
well-prepared for the worst, according to weather experts. 2014 is an El
Nino year, said Mike Cantin of the
National Weather Service, Central Pacific Hurricane Center in Honolulu. El
Nino conditions are caused by abnormally warm water near the equator,
where hurricanes typically form, and
that -- statistically speaking -- brings a
greater likelihood of tropical cyclones,
according to Cantin.
“You have a whole generation of
people who grew up on Molokai who
have never experienced a hurricane and
have no idea what it is,” explained Cantin
on a trip to Molokai last month. “There’s
no set pattern to when these things happen and we need to be prepared every
year.”

Why I Fly
with Makani Kai.
“I had to fly to Oahu on a semi emergency and Makani Kai was full. It cost me
$150 to fly on another airline.” says Carolyn. “I like Makani Kai’s price; it’s hard to
beat.” Plus, Carolyn enjoys the comfortable lounge and the fact that she doesn’t
have to stand in line. “And no security. That’s a big one.”
We’re just doing what we can to make air travel the way it’s supposed to be.

Molokai Charity Walk
Raises Record Total

R
aising a grand total of $66,829.62,
the Molokai Charity Walk held
last Saturday by the Maui Hotel
& Lodging Association (MHLA) was a
record-breaking success. The Charity
Walk, held annually around the state,
raises money for local nonprofits and
charities.
More than 200 people from over
a dozen organizations participated in
this year’s walk from Hotel Molokai
to Paddlers Inn and back, a length of
about three miles. The turnout, though
slightly smaller than last year’s, didn’t
hinder the amount of money raised.
This year’s walked earned over $4,000
more than last year, according to Laura
Echiverri, administrative assistant at
MHLA and head organizer of the event.
“We thought $62,000 [in 2013]
was going to be hard to beat… So we
couldn’t believe it when we hit over
$66,000,” said Echiverri.
Echiverri explained that individuals can choose to raise money for the island as a whole or for a specific organization. Funds raised by local nonprofits
benefit their organization exclusively,
while money garnered by for-profit
businesses goes into a general fund to
be allocated to nonprofits all over Maui
County.
This year’s event also doubled the
course walked in previous years. Last
year, the walk went one way from Paddlers to Hotel Molokai, causing some
confusion about transportation back
into town and to vehicles.
Echiverri noted that participation
was not affected by the decision to increase the length, and that participants
did not need to actually walk in the
event to help raise money.
Of all the organizations and groups
that participated, Molokai High School
Athletics Department brought in the
most money, with an estimated $14,000.
“I am so proud,” said Echiverri. “The Molokai Community really
stepped up to the challenge.”
Both Lanai and Molokai held their
charity walks this past Saturday, while
Maui will host theirs next Saturday,
May 10. The grand total raised for Maui
County will be announced in August.

Dancing With Purpose
By Bianca Moragne | Staff Writer
W
hat do ballroom dancing and
sexual abuse prevention have
in common? If your answer is
“nothing,” you’ve never been to Kealoha Hooper’s ballroom classes on Molokai. While some might view ballroom
dancing as old-fashioned or out-dated,
Hooper is using ballroom to teach lessons of respect and start conversations
about a problem plaguing many of today’s communities: violence and sexual
abuse of children.
Ballroom dance classes sponsored
through Molokai’s Consuelo Foundation, an organization working to prevent child neglect, violence and abuse,
and the Office of Hawaiian Affairs
(OHA) are teaching Molokai students
more than how to rumba, fox trot and
tango. The classes are enriching lives by
improving self-confidence, communication, acceptance of others and regard
for personal boundaries, said Hooper, a
ballroom dance instructor who danced
professionally with at Arthur Murray
Dance Studios in Portland Oregon.
“My overall objective is to teach
people about respect,” Hooper said.
“The context of respect and how to respect others [and to teach] personal
responsibility, that’s the goal for [Consuelo Foundation’s] prevention work.”
According to the Foundation, ballroom dancing has been known to teach
self-confidence, self-worth and the respect of others. Partners must be considerate and provide counterbalance
to dance. The goal of the project is to
protect children from sexual abuse and
teach them the importance of valuing
individual boundaries, using indirect
dancing lessons.
“I recommend it to everyone, especially adults. It’s a good time to get to
know yourself better, gain ownership of
your body and it’s fun,” said Tiana Merino, a dance student and homemaker
2
who began classes in November. “The
classes teach about respecting your
partner no matter who you were dancing with.”
In 2012, a study titled “And How
Are the Children?” asked communities
with a high Native Hawaiian population about the cultural and social conditions of their children and families.
When participants conveyed the problem of sexual abuse on Molokai, the
Consuelo Foundation partnered with
the OHA and Child and Family Services
to effect positive change on Molokai.
To aid in the mission of childhood
sexual abuse, Hooper began the threemonth dance series, now held twice a
year, in November 2013. Free classes are
offered for keiki ages 7 and up Wednesday from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. at the Molokai Youth Center, and for adults ages
14 and up every Thursday from 5:30
to 6:30 p.m. at Kalanianaòle Hall. The
dance series has proved popular, with
more than 20 students enrolled in the
first adult session last year.
“When you ballroom dance, you
have to make sure [you know] what
your responsibility is…and how to gain
respect from ourselves and give respect
to the person you are dancing with,”
Hooper said.
Hooper expressed that issues of
child sexual abuse are often avoided
in conversation on Molokai for fear of
damaging family relationships; however he said he hopes the classes will raise
awareness and generate discussion.
“[The classes] really teach you
about respecting your boundaries and
respecting your partner’s boundaries,” Merino said. “The hardest change
I have seen in myself was letting go…
and trusting and respecting my partner
to lead me.”
For more information or to participate in the ballroom dancing classes,
contact Hooper at 646-0134.

Kualapuù School’s 5K
Team Races on Oahu
Kualapuù School News Release
The Kualapuù School 5K team
raced against a strong field of Oahu runners in the Honolulu 5K for Kids held
on Sunday, April 27. Keahe Ross was
the top finisher from Molokai finishing
in 25:01 for third place in her age group.
The next three Kualapuù School runners ran the course together finishing
within 23 seconds of each other. First
in the pack of Kualapuù runners was
Namaka Ross finishing in a time of
28:37, good for 10th in his age division.
Close on his heels came Kapiliùla Naehu in a time of 28:59, good for seventh
in the girl’s 11-12s. One tick back of
Kapiliùla came Nico Wittenberg, who
finished in 29 minutes flat. Nico placed
eighth in the boy’s 11-12 division. The
final runner crossing the finish line for
Kualapuù School was Dyllan Alavazo,
who finished in a time of 31:33 earning
15th in his age group.
These are all terrific results in light
of the depth of the field with more than
600 runners competing, the travel involved, and the late start for the runners who didn’t realize that there was
not a start mat this year. For those of
you who are unfamiliar with larger race
events, customarily electronic timing is
used to calculate a runner’s time based
upon the difference between the time
when the runner crosses the start mat
and the time when the runner crosses
the finish mat. This type of timing is
used to alleviate start line congestion.
This year there was not a start mat. Our
runners politely started at the back of
the field without realizing that there
had been a change in timing procedures this year. Roughly a minute went
by before our runners cleared the start
line. Unfortunately, this minute was
not later subtracted from their times;
unfortunate, but all in all, a good learning experience.
At this time, the team would like
to send out a big mahalo to our supporters: Kauwela Kalawe, who loaned
the team her car for transportation on
Oahu; Gandharva Ross for helping
to chaperone the runners; Penny Duvauchelle, Ian Haskins, Ryan Link, and
Sue Forbes-Kikukawa for contributing
class funds to make the trip possible;
Mary Anne Nowakowski, our mainland sponsor; and all of the entry-fee
paying adult runners who came to one
or more of our races. We could not have
done it without you; thank you for your
helping us travel to Oahu to race in this
year’s 5K for Kids!

Harlem Ambassadors Tour
Coming To Molokai
Molokai Chamber of Commerce
News Release
We are pleased to announce that the
Molokai Chamber of Commerce will be
hosting the Harlem Ambassadors on Tuesday May 20, at 6:30 p.m. at the Barn at
Molokai High School. Hoops and hijinks
are on their way as our very own local challengers, the Molokai All-Stars, take on the
Harlem Ambassadors in a comedy basketball show the whole family will enjoy.
The Harlem Ambassadors offer a
unique brand of Harlem-style basketball,
featuring high-flying slam dunks, dazzling
ball-handling tricks, hilarious comedy routines, music, dancing and games for the
kids.
“At our shows, we want the kids to
know that they’re part of our team too,”
Coach Ladè Majic said. “We invite as many
kids as we can to come sit on the bench,
have a front row seat during the show, and
get involved in all of the fun stuff we do.”
“We have assembled a team of highly
skilled players made up of people from
our community and even a couple of special guests to take on the powerful Ambassadors,” said Chamber President Rob
Stephenson. “We invite you to come to the
game and bring your family to cheer on
our awesome local talent and help bring
our community together with this positive
and entertaining event.”

Continued From pg. 1
Hurricane season runs from June 1 to
Nov. 30 annually. There are usually four to
five tropical cyclones -- a generic term that
can refer to hurricanes, tropical storms or
tropical depressions, depending on wind
speed -- that form in the Central Pacific on
average every year. Not all of those storms
make landfall. In El Nino years over the last
40 years, the annual average for tropical cyclones forming is six to seven, said Cantin.
That means the chances that one of those
storms hitting Hawaii is greater.
“It gives us higher odds -- it only takes
that one storm [making landfall],” Cantin
cautioned. “The last two landfalling hurricanes in Hawaii -- Iwa in 1982 and Iniki in
1992 -- both occurred in El Nino years.”
Getting prepared before hurricane
season is the most important message, according to Cantin. He suggested building
up supplies in your home over time, so
everyone doesn’t rush to the store at once
when emergencies hit.
“The recommendation is for folks to
have a week’s worth of food and water,”
said Cantin, adding that the rule of thumb
is to have one gallon of water per day per
person, which can be used for drinking,
cooking and sanitation.
Keep a supply of non-perishable food
on hand; Cantin also advised having a regular, non-electric can opener.
Hurricanes bring a “triple threat” -strong, damaging winds; flooding rains;
and a storm surge that brings an abnormal
rise in ocean, similar to a tsunami, except
that it won’t subside until the wind dies
down. During Hurricane Iniki, winds
peaked over 150 miles per hour, said

Cantin. That was strong enough to snap
palm trees and shoot 2x4 boards straight
through cement walls. In that storm, the
high winds caused damage to 80 percent
of all structures.
Because of those conditions, it’s important to have an emergency hurricane action plan, said Cantin. If your home is in a
flood zone, it’s best to leave. Go to a friend
or family’s home out of the flood zone.
Flooding is number one weather-related
killer in tropical cyclones, according to Cantin. The county will also open up shelters
during such conditions.
If it’s not possible to get to higher
ground -- for example, if you live on Molokai’s east end and the road is already flooded, Cantin advises getting into a “substancial structure” such as a reinforced concrete
building. If that’s also not possible, the next
best thing is to take shelter in an interior
room with the most walls between you and
the outside, said Cantin.
“We usually issue a hurricane ‘watch’
48 hours in advance, with a ‘warning’ at 36
hours,” explained Cantin. “Isolated areas
like Halawa need to make sure they reach a
safe zone as early as possible. Folks should
not wait until hour 35 to head to where
they need to go. Get there early and hunker
down.”
Cantin said it’s easy to get complacent
by thinking that because we haven’t had a
hurricane in years, it’s not likely to hit.
“We’re due every year for a hurricane,” he said. “They don’t necessarily happen, but never take it for granted. [And if it
does happen], the spirit of the people here
on Molokai -- the tight knit community
-- really helps. Taking care of each other -that’s wonderful to see.”

Weighing Yourself
By Ayda Ersoy
When was the last time you
weighed yourself? Don’t be scared!
It’s your own body; you need to
know everything about it. Check your
weight once a week - make sure it’s
always at the same time of day (for example, always first thing in the morning), and wear the same clothes every
time. Then write it down.
You need to keep track of your
weight. If you need to lose some
weight, then think about it this way:
imagine you are holding a glass of
water for five minutes. That’s no problem, right? Let’s say 10 minutes - now
maybe your arm starts getting tired.
How about one hour? Probably you
already dropped the glass because
your arm and shoulder were hurting
so much.
Now imagine this extra weight
on your own body. Maybe for three
months, or six months, maybe for
many years. How does your body
feel, your joints, your heart? You’re

dotes on her hula traditions and the Hawaiian protocols she grew up with.
Francis Francisco from Oahu halau
Na Mamo O Ka Liko Maile O Kohala expressed hula’s special connection to the
environment during a panel discussion Friday evening.
“Hula is the natural environment.
Hula is life,” Francisco said. “Unlike any
other form or style of dance, hula is our connection to our kupuna, to our present, and
to our future.”
Cy Bridges said hula incorporates
wind and other elements by connecting
early protocols with dance movements.
“Hula is a dance of environmental
kinship,” Bridges explained. “There is a
responsibility to know who you are in the
environment. The magic is in the practice of
hula, and in the practice you understand…
your relationship with the environment
and kuleana to respect it.”
With each passing year, Ka Hula Piko
not only celebrates hula but also attracts
more guests and businesses that support
Molokai’s economy.

35 local staff for the dining services.
Clint added that even though they
are not ready to begin hiring yet, interested applicants can stop by the front
office to pick up an application and get
started with the interview process.
Tante’s - A History of Success
Tante’s Island Cuisine, run by Urban and his wife Telly, got its start on
Hawaii Island nearly 30 years ago at
the Kona Seaside Hotel. About a year
and a half ago, the operation moved to
the Maui Seaside Hotel, according to
Urban.
When he heard that the “best restaurant in town” was in the process of
being rebuilt, Urban contacted Hotel
Molokai’s Beachtree Properties management and got in touch with Drew.
With two other candidates interested in managing the restaurant, Urban said they “got lucky” with being
awarded the management contract.
“Tante stood out as the leading candidate due to his commitment to service
and working with the community,” said
Drew. “They will bring consistency, will
raise the level of service and definitely
will serve the community in something
they love -- local food.”
Urban said the menu at Hotel
carrying all that extra weight around
with you all the time, and that’s hurting your body. When you start losing
weight you will have so much more
energy. You will feel lighter, younger,
and much happier.
Make sure you do your workout
every day! This will also help you
think much more about what you’re
eating, so your diet will improve too.
Your body is made for moving -be grateful and thankful for what you
have, you have legs, you have arms.
Focus on what you can do, don’t
waste any energy on thinking about
what you can’t do. Do your best every
day, and always remember, just take it
one day at a time. Go for a walk, and
maybe while you’re walking you can
move your arms. And keep smiling -life is awesome, you are awesome!
Keep moving, and keep motivating each other.
You can contact me any time on
my website MolokaiFitness.com if
you need help or advice.
“I’ve been participating since [Ka
Hula Piko] was out on the West End…and
it’s wonderful,” said Linda Johnson of Moana’s Gracious Ladies. “This year it seems
like there’s a lot more people, booths and
I’ve walked around to see all of it. It’s really
growing.”
For local vendors, crafters and artists,
it’s a chance to share their merchandise
with international buyers.
“They’ve timed this perfectly because
it’s right when things start to drop off, the
snowbirds have left and we need a good
economic boost,” said Ani Van Eps, of Ani
Van Eps Fine Art, who has been a vendor at
the event for a decade.
Van Eps, who knew Kaimikaua, added that Ka Hula Piko honors him well.
“He wanted to spread aloha throughout the world and he did by bringing people
here for [Ka Hula Piko] and teaching them
about hula, the culture and the sacredness
of it,” she said.
For many, the annual event offers an
opportunity to honor the past.
“If we’re able to bring hula back to the
very beginning, to the basics, that’s where
we maintain gratitude and appreciation
for how far hula has come,” said Dizon.
“Never forgetting where you come from is
important.”
Molokai will be similar to Tante’s on
Maui -- a fusion of local, Filipino, Asian,
seafood, steak and continental dishes.
He said he plans to work with Molokai
food producers, farmers and fishermen
to feature local ingredients as much as
possible.
Molokai food producers interested
in supplying the restaurant can contact
Clint, who will handle inventory and
accounting, at (808) 250-6076, or Urban
at (808) 640-0193.
Family Homecoming
For Starlet, Clint and Natalie, management of Tante’s at Hotel Molokai has
afforded them the opportunity to return
home to Molokai. Starlet and Clint had
been living on Maui for the past three
years, where Starlet worked as a server
at Tante’s, and Clint provided Tante’s
guests with regular music and entertainment. Natalie was living on Oahu
for the last eight years, working as a
server at a Waikiki restaurant.
Natalie -- who will serve as the
dining and bar manager -- is especially excited to continue and foster the
world-renowned Kupuna Night at Hotel Molokai every Friday evening from
4 to 6 p.m.
“This is the kind of environment
[on Molokai] I wanted to work in,” said
Natalie. “As a hula dancer, I love Hawaiian music… working in Waikiki, it’s
so commercialized. Here, there’s genuine Hawaiian music and a breathtaking
view.”
Starlet said she looks forward to
hosting community events, parties,
hula, concerts, and most of all, “sharing
the underground talents on Molokai.”
She asks local entertainers “ages 0 to
100” to contact her if they’d like to fill
Hotel Molokai’s intimate stage.
In the meantime, Urban said he’s
grateful to Drew and Beachtree for giving them this opportunity, and the trio
is thrilled to be a part of the operation.
“We’re happy to be home,” said
Starlet. “We always wanted to come
back and serve the community here.
We’re thankful to be given the opportunity to do that. It’s a great, new start for
us and be together again.”

Prof to Speak on Pesticides
Hawaii SEED News Release
A state-wide speaking tour of worldrenowned University of California Berkeley Professor of Integrative Biology Dr.
Tyrone Hayes will include Molokai on May
16. Paul Towers from Pesticide Action Network will be speaking as well, presenting
an overview of pesticide use nationally and
internationally and the significant role that
Hawaii plays as ground zero for open-air
pesticide experimentation.
The Molokai event will be held on
Friday, May 16 at 6 p.m. at the Molokai
Community Health Center. Other special
guests will include Lorrin Pang, M.D. of the
Hawaii Department of Health and Jeri Di
Pietro, president of Hawaii SEED.
Dr. Hayes is best known for his research findings that Swiss Chemical Company Syngenta’s herbicide atrazine is an
endocrine disruptor that not only demasculinizes male frogs but transforms them
into fully functioning reproductive females.
Dr. Hayes is also an advocate for critical review and regulation of pesticides and other
chemicals that may cause adverse health
effects. Dr. Hayes has presented hundreds
of papers, talks, and seminars on the role of
environmental chemical contaminants in
global amphibian declines and in the health
disparities that occur in minority and lowincome populations.
Despite his research being contested
by Syngenta, it was used as the basis for the
settlement of a multimillion-dollar class ac-
tion lawsuit against them. According to the
lead plaintiff’s lawyer Stephen M. Tillery,
“Science has been fighting an uphill battle
against giant pesticide manufacturers like
Syngenta who claim that a little weed killer
in your drinking water won’t hurt you. Independent scientists now believe that even
trace amounts can harm you and your children for generations to come.”
According to Joy Shih, a doctoral
candidate at the University of Hawaii’s
School of Ocean and Earth Science and
Technology, “the chemical poses a particular threat in Hawaii because of the islands’
geography.” She thinks atrazine should be
banned. “I think of Hawaii as one giant watershed,” she said. “There is no inland, from
the tops of the mountains, everything flows
into the ocean. So anything that you apply
that is water soluble ends up in the ocean.
Fish are definitely affected and coral is affected.” Shih said that studies show that
atrazine causes coral bleaching and harms
phytoplankton, which rest at the bottom of
the aquatic food chain.
According to Pesticide Action Network, there are many viable ways of producing corn and growing food without
relying on atrazine. Healthy, resilient farming systems can grow food to feed Hawaii,
without the use of hazardous pesticides.
Syngenta, which is based in Basel, sells
more than fourteen billion dollars’ worth
of seeds and pesticides a year and funds
research at some four hundred academic
institutions around the world.

Protect Your Home From
Brush Fire
By Denise Laitinen
Because the top three causes of
brush fire in Hawaii are human-caused
-- arson, fireworks and human error -it’s crucial that folks do what they can to
protect their property from brush fires.
Fortunately, the national Firewise Communities program offers free and easy
suggestions Molokai residents can take
to reduce their risk to brush fire. With
Molokai’s history of large brushfires, and
recent case of intentionally-set fires in
Kalamaùla, it is especially important to
always be ready to protect your property
from fire.
“Firewise teaches people how to
prepare for a fire before it occurs,” said
Denise Laitinen, the Hawaii Firewise
Communities Coordinator.
A key part of Firewise landscaping
is creating defensible space around your
property.
“It’s about being lean, clean, and
green,” said Laitinen. By reducing the
amount of flammable vegetation around
your home, you reduce the risk of flames
igniting the house in the first place. “Creating a buffer zone of 30 feet of defensible
space around your property will help
reduce your risk to wildfire. Even if you
only have 5 or 10 feet of yard, you can still
be Firewise.”
To create defensible space, prune
shrubs and trees so the lowest branches
are 6 to 10 feet off the ground to prevent
fire traveling from the ground to the treetops. Ideally, trees should be spaced ten
feet apart in the yard. Make sure plants
closest to the house are low to the ground.
Remove dead leaves and plant material from around your home. After you
prune, don’t dump your green waste in
a corner of the yard or over your back
fence. It’s a fire hazard and an invitation
for critters to set up home. Look to see
where dead leaves collect or land by the
wind and make sure you rake or clean
these areas regularly. Fire brands can
travel up to a mile in windy conditions.
A firebrand from burning trash or a brush
fire carried by the wind could land in the
same area that leaves collect, enabling a
fire to smolder or grow.
Plant vegetation with a high-moisture content or plants native to your area.
Clear away flammable plants that contain
oily resins, such as eucyclyptus or silver
oak. Fountain grass and bunch grass are
high-intensity fuels that can help spread
fire quickly. Kiawe trees are known carriers of fire brands.
Incidentally, most native plants that
once occurred in the lowland and coastal
leeward areas do not carry fire well and
are thus well-suited for fire-safe landscaping and fuel breaks. Low-growing
endemic shrubs, such as ìlima papa and
the rare òhai and koòloaùla are ideal for
coastal locations.
For more information on how you
can make your home Firewise, contact
the Hawaii Firewise Communities Coordinator at (808) 281-3497 or by email
at firewisehawaii@yahoo.com. Stay up
to date on local wildfire safety issues
and Firewise activities on social media.

Maui County Festival Accepting Applications
County of Maui News Release
The inaugural “Made in Maui County” Festival will be held November 7 and 8
at the Maui Arts & Cultural Center in Kahului, the Mayor’s Office of Economic Development announced. Approximately 6,000 to
8,000 residents and visitors are anticipated
to attend the event, which will showcase
a wide variety of made-in-Maui County
products, including foods, produce, art,
crafts, jewelry, fashion, gifts, collectibles and
more in one location.
Planning for the first-ever festival is
in full swing with vendor applications and
sponsorship forms now being accepted
on the event’s official website, MadeIn-
MauiCountyFestival.com. The event is being presented by the Mayor’s Office of Economic Development in partnership with the
Maui Chamber of Commerce.
“This new festival will benefit our local
economy in many ways,” said Mayor Alan
Arakawa. “Besides giving local merchants
the chance to showcase and sell their locally
produced items, it stimulates our economy
as a whole by bringing in interested shoppers to our island. In other words, everyone
benefits both directly and indirectly from
the festival.”
Vendors must be based in Maui County and feature a minimum of 51 percent,
value-added in Hawaii. Booth space will be
assigned based on type of product and on a
first-come, first-served basis. Vendor applications can be downloaded from MadeInMauiCountyFestival.com; click on “Vendors” button.
Sponsorship opportunities are another
way for companies to show their support
of Maui County’s entrepreneurs and their
products while increasing visibility for their
own business. To receive a Sponsor Packet,
click on the “Sponsors” button on the festival website.
Patterned after the successful “Made
In Hawaii” Festival, this new Maui County
event offers greater opportunities for local
businesses from Maui, Molokai and Lanai
8
to participate.
“Not all businesses can afford to go
to Oahu for the ‘Made In Hawaii’ festival,” said Teena Rasmussen, Director of the
Mayor’s Office of Economic Development.
“Costs for transportation, accommodations
and staffing can quickly add up. That’s why
this new event was created to make it more
affordable and convenient for our local businesses to showcase their products right here
at home.”

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Over a hundred years ago,
the cattle industry pressured the U.S. government to kill off
wolves in Yellowstone National Park. By 1926 the wolves had
all but vanished. In the following decades, elk herds grew
unnaturally big, no longer hunted by their natural predator.
The elk decimated the berry bushes of Yellowstone, eating
the wild fruit with such voracity that grizzly bears and many
other species went hungry. In 1995, environmentalists and
conservationists got clearance to re-introduce wolves to the
area. Now the berry bushes are flourishing again. Grizzlies
are thriving, as are other mammals that had been deprived. I
regard this vignette as an allegory for your life in the coming
months, Libra. It’s time to do the equivalent of replenishing
the wolf population. Correct the imbalance.
ARIES (March 21-April 19): Fireworks displays excite the
eyes and lift the spirit. But the smoke and dust they produce
can harm the lungs with residues of heavy metals. The toxic
chemicals they release may pollute streams and lakes and
even groundwater. So is there any alternative? Not yet. No
one has come up with a more benign variety of fireworks. But
if it happens soon, I bet it will be due to the efforts of an enterprising Aries researcher. Your tribe is entering a phase when

Veterans Corner
By Jesse Church
Aloha my beloved veterans and
fellow residents of
Molokai, old Jesse
here with all the
veterans news and
upcoming events.
When you go to
the doctor, you’re
always hoping for a clean bill of health.
But why do we use that expression? The
term has its roots in the Navy. A bill of
health is a document a ship provides to
port cities, according to Naval history
and heritage command. It is proof that
sailors are not suffering any epidemic
or infection. The document is often unnecessary when travelling between domestic ports, according to the manual
for the Medical Department of the U.S.
Navy; however, one is needed when
sailing to a foreign port. Information required when applying for a bill of health
includes the vessel’s name, number of
people aboard, captain’s name and destination. The Navy is still required to
provide a document stating the health
of a ship’s personnel to foreign ports,
according to a spokeswoman from the
Navy Bureau of Medicine and Surgery.
Now I’d like to tell you about a
holiday that few Americans may be
aware of. Armed Forces Day was first
celebrated on Saturday, May 20, 1950
by presidential proclamation. Also,
Armed Forces Week begins on the second Saturday of May and ends on the
third Sunday of May. Both holidays are
celebrated annually. In 1950 for the first
Armed Forces Day, 10,000 troops and
veterans marched past the President in
Washington D.C. An estimated 33,000
participants initiated the day in New
York City. On May 17, 1952, the New
York Times wrote, “This is the day on
which we have the welcome opportunity to pay special tribute to the men
and women of the armed forces and let
them know that we hold them in exceptional esteem.” We need to be more conscious of our debt of honored affection,
and show them how much we think of
them. So let us all mark May 20 on our
calendar and not forget Armed Forces
Day.
See if you can correctly answer this
question: Where in the Pacific were the
Sandwich Islands? The answer will be
in the next column.
Memorial Day is on Monday, May
26, so let us not forget to pay homage
to those brave Americans who gave
their last full measure of devotion so
we are able to live as free Americans,
something every American should be
very proud of. Also, let us not forget our
military personnel stationed around
the world, especially those men and
women in harm’s way. For all they do
for us, we send them a big mahalo and
to our veterans for all they have done,
and the people of Molokai for all the
support you have always given them. If
old Jesse can help you in any way please
give me a call, or if you have something
for the column. I hope everyone has a
terrific week and remember that old
Jesse loves you all dearly. Give me a call
at 553-3323. Until next time, mahalo to
all my fellow veterans and residents of
Molokai.

Letters & Announcements
Pesticide Comparison
Inaccurate
In response to the letter “Pesticides
and Organic Labeling” that printed in the
April 23 issue, comparing organic to conventional pesticides is like comparing the
moon to the sun; night and day. The excessive use of pesticides is one of the biggest
concerns in Hawaii seed corn production
today, and puts field workers at risk due
to long-term exposure to pesticide-treated
fields and pesticide-impregnated dust.
Because seed corn is not an edible crop, a
wide array of pesticides can be used, even
in combinations. Quoting from a definitive
book on Corn Production in Hawaii, UH
corn breeder Jim Brewbaker stated that
“Even the most superior hybrids from the
U.S. Corn Belt perform poorly in the tropics…its tropical yields are very low without
excessive use of fungicides and insecticides.”
After a six-month review and discussion triggered by the seed corn pesticide
issue on Kauai, the State Environmental
Council created a seven-point resolution
urging the state to take action on the seed
corn pesticide issue. Resolutions can be
viewed at prlog.org/12296496-hawaii-
environmental-council-calls-for-morepesticide-investigation-and-enforcement.
html.
The State Legislature has a responsibility of upholding the State Constitution
to “conserve and protect Hawaii’s natural
beauty and all natural resources, including land, water, air, minerals, and energy
resources…”
Generations of Molokai residents have
been exposed to large scale pesticide use,
and the present issue just adds more layers
to a big problem. Recent pesticide drift into
Kualapuù town earlier this year is just a
sign of things to come. Comparing organic
pesticides to conventional pesticides, some
of which were developed during World
War II and are still being used, shows that
these companies are not serious about addressing the pesticide issue. The health and
welfare of the community, including its
field workers, and also impacts on our island environment, must come first.

Scholarship to Ìolani
Àukai
Keliìhelekuau
Peter
O’Sullivan, a sixth grader at Kualapu’u
School, has recently been awarded a $16,100
scholarship to attend Ìolani School, one of
the top private schools in Hawaii. For new
incoming seventh graders, Ìolani selects
only 50 new students a year in the state for
this grade level which making it one of the
most competitive schools in Hawaii.
In late last year, Àukai had applied to
three of the top private schools for academics and received admission to all. He had a
very tough decision to make and in the end
found Ìolani School most suitable to his talents and interests. With a lot of hard work
and dedication, he is excited to start his
new journey in life through a rigorous and
challenging school schedule. He would
like to pursue basketball, swimming, tennis, track and field as well as hula, math
team, and maybe some acting or drama
classes. Àukai and his family will be moving to Oahu to pursue his education as well
as the education for his brothers and sisters,
also allowing a chance to extend the family
home business.
We would like to thank all of his teachers for aiding him over the past seven years:
11
Mrs. Maioho, Mrs. Kiyan, Ms. Hernandez,
Ms. Iaea, Ms. Abraham, Mrs. Haase, Mrs.
Forbes and currently Mrs. Link, as well as
all of the staff at Kualapuù School.
We would also like to thank Kumu
Kanoelani Davis with Ka Pa Hula Ò Hina
I Ka Po Laìlaì, and swim Coaches Jessica Kalawe-Oswald and Coach Jesse with
Molokai Dolphins Swim Club for always
offering support, guidance and discipline.
We love you ‘Aukai and are so proud of
you.
