The Hawaiian community has long contributed to the vibrant, multi-cultural city that is San Diego, and we are so pleased to host this year's convention. I'm sure that your stay in our fine city will prove to be everything you imagined and much more. San Diego is blessed with numerous attractions which are available for your enrichment, recreation and relaxation. Most people think of San Diego for our beautiful beaches and waterfront activities, but we have so much more to experience! Downtown San Diego is an exciting, 24 hour city with world-class restaurants and entertainment in the historic Gaslamp Quarter. Horton Plaza is an award-winning retail center with unique department stores and specialty shops that are within walking distance of fabulous galleries, theaters, and brand new hotels. Our city boasts several prestigious universities, and is home to a burgeoning hi-tech industry. We are very proud of our world famous zoo and dozens of fascinating museums in beautiful Balboa Park. Our proximity to the Mexican border, Sea World, historic Old Town, Mission Bay Parkand Seaport Village on San Diego Bay, are just a few of the reasons San Diego has come to be known as "America's FinestCity."
