MORE COMING EVENTS

Christmas Party - December 19, 2009

Please join your fellow volksmarchers at our annual Christmas party on December 19. Barbara Mateo-Kihano and Gayla Tarumoto volunteered to organize this event, so we can definitely expect a great time. A flyer will be sent out in late November with more party details (directions, grab bag, etc.).
There will be a Pre-Party Downtown Scavenger Hunt (optional but lots of fun!) with a start and finish at the Mandalay. It’s an informationgathering hunt only – not one where you bring back items.
Please RSVP by December 3. Make your check payable to Menehune Marchers and send to: Carol Romig, 95-211 Kemu Place, Mililani, HI 96789. Include the names of attendees, your telephone number and email.

Hope to see you on the trails!
