Authentic Hawaii Will Enable Us to Explore Hawaii’S Big Island with a Stay at the Private Home of the Dewars, Founders of China Advocates
A U T HJanuaryE N T9 -I 14,C 2018H A W A I I Dear Washington & Lee Alumni, Hawaii is much more than beaches. It’s gardens and waterfalls and rainforests and volcanoes; it’s island history and native traditions, architecture and astronomy, rare flora and fauna, small towns and museums, home cooking and walks along the bay. Here is a travel adventure designed to help us feel more like new residents who have been given a rare opportunity to know Hawaii beyond its fabled shorelines and surf. Authentic Hawaii will enable us to explore Hawaii’s Big Island with a stay at the private home of the Dewars, founders of China Advocates. This grand home, known as the Thomas Guard House, is located in the community of Reed’s Island, where the Hawaiian royals once resided. Torch Ginger, Hawaiian Tropical Botanical Gardens Visiting Hilo’s historic downtown is a proverbial step back in time. Here we’ll explore muse ums, shops, galleries, and restaurants, and mingle with Hilo’s friendly and diverse residents. We’ll take daily excursions to experience the area’s many natural wonders, including Kīlauea, one of the world’s most active volcanoes, and Mauna Loa, Earth’s most massive volcano. We’ll also visit research centers and organizations working to advance scientific understanding and preserve the rich heritage of th e area. Leading our trip will be W&L professor of geology Sea Turtle and associate provost Elizabeth Knapp, whose special interest in Hawaiian volcanology will serve our scientific curiosity well. This insider’s exploration of the Big Island is perfectly timed to help you escape the winter doldrums. -

Hilo Bayfront Trails Phase 1: Planning
Hilo Bayfront Trails Phase 1: Planning Public Meeting 2 April 16, 2008 Hawai‘i Tourism Authority County of Hawai‘i Helber Hastert & Fee, Planners Aloha kākou. This morning our plane flew right over the Hilo Bayfront Trails project area, and we were re-inspired by the incredible beauty of the bayfront. You all have a great amenity. We are very glad to be here tonight. Thank you very much for coming tonight and showing your interest in the trails project. We see many familiar faces from the first public meeting last October. And a big mahalo to all who made tonight’s meeting possible. Thank you to Beth for her great introduction. And thank you to Alice Moon & Company for all the arrangements they made. We have a lot to cover, so let’s get started. 1 Agenda • Recap of Public Meeting 1 • Overview of Community Input from Public Meeting 1 • User Survey Responses • Presentation of Draft Conceptual Trails Plan • Small Group Trail Activity • Small Group Presentations • What’s Next? Wrap Up The primary purpose of tonight’s meeting is to present the Draft Conceptual Trails Plan and have you let us know what you think of it. It is a draft. The plan is the result of community input from the first public meeting last October and responses from a user survey that was distributed at the meeting and made available online. The plan has also benefited from subsequent site studies and advisement from our project Stakeholder Advisory Committee. Before we present the plan, we’d like to provide a recap of the first public meeting and share what we learned from you, the community. -
Sec.106 Statewide Water Bottle Stations DRAFT REVISED
SECTION 106 CONSULTATION INSTALLATION OF WATER BOTTLE FILLING STATIONS AT HAWAI‘I STATE PARKS STATEWIDE Prepared by: Martha Yent, M.A. Department of Land & Natural Resources Division of State Parks Prepared for: July 2018 INTRODUCTION The Department of Land and Natural Resources (DLNR), Division of State Parks (State Parks) proposes to install 19 water bottle filling stations in 15 parks on the islands of Hawai‘i, Kaua‘i, Maui and O‘ahu. These water bottle filling stations will encourage park users to use refillable water bottles rather than disposable plastic bottles. The project also involves educational outreach, including the installation of interpretive signs to teach both Hawai‘i residents and visitors about the harm that single-use plastic water bottles do if they become marine debris and ways that people can help reduce marine debris that is created in the Hawaiian Islands. These signs will be placed near the water bottle filling stations, either mounted on the walls of the comfort stations or in frames mounted on existing concrete slabs. To implement the water bottle filling station project, DLNR applied for a grant from the Marine Debris Program of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). The goal of this federal grant program is to identify, assess, reduce, and prevent the occurrence of marine debris in our waters and to protect and conserve the nation’s marine environment from the impacts of marine debris. There are over 11 million visitors to the Hawai‘i state park system annually with several parks experiencing over 1 million visitors a year. Approximately 70% of these visitors are from out-of-state while the other 30% are local Hawai‘i residents. -
7. Affected Environment
DRAFT ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT/DRAFT MANAGEMENT PLAN 7. Affected Environment This section describes the affected environment across Hawai‘i in general, followed by a detailed description of the affected environment at specific locations proposed for incorporation into the sanctuary. The region of interest (ROI) or area of potential affect includes all lands and waters within and adjacent to the sanctuary in the populated Hawaiian Islands. There are currently sanctuary areas that border Hawai‘i, Kaho‘olawe, Maui, Lāna‘i, Moloka‘i, O‘ahu, and Kaua‘i. The sanctuary is proposing boundary changes on the north shores of O‘ahu and Kaua‘i, as well as the inclusion of new sanctuary boundary around Ni‘ihau. 7.1. Biophysical Environment 7.1.1. Habitats The current and proposed sanctuary boundaries include a wide range of sub-tropical marine habitat types including coastal and shoreline areas, estuaries, seagrass, sandy, hard and rubble habitat, coral reefs, and deep ocean. These habitats support diverse marine species, which are presented in more detail in the next section. This section provides an overview of the primary habitat types within the current and proposed sanctuary boundaries. The primary threats to habitats are discussed in Section 6.1.4., such as coral bleaching, coral disease, vessel grounding, and pollution. For the populated Hawaiian Islands, NOAA mapped 32 distinct habitat types (i.e., 4 major and 14 detailed geomorphological structure classes; 7 major and 3 detailed biological cover types) within 13 nearshore zones using satellite imagery (Battista et al. 2007). Total coral reef and hard bottom and total “other” substrate (e.g. -
Kailua-Kona, Hi
David Armstrong [email protected] www.cruiseplannerslv.com 702-823-5763 KAILUA-KONA, HI OVERVIEW Introduction The famed Kona coast covers about two-thirds of the western coastline of Hawaii Island—the perfect spot for spectacular sunsets. At the heart of Kona is the town of Kailua-Kona, where many of the area's restaurants and tourist activities are clustered. Along the North Kona and South Kohala coasts, you'll find some of Hawaii's most luxurious resorts. Spend several days exploring Kailua-Kona's historical and cultural attractions, engaging in watersports, deep-sea fishing and diving, or just relaxing on the many spectacular beaches. Perhaps the Kona coast's biggest attraction is its fine, sunny weather—daytime temperatures average in the high 70s F/23-26 C year-round. Sights—Hawaiian history at Puuhonua O Honaunau National Historic Park; King Kamehameha's compound, Kamakahonu, and reconstructed temple, Ahuena Heiau; a view of Kilauea's lava flows from the ground or a helicopter. Museums—Viewing indigenous Hawaiian artifacts at Hulihee Palace and Museum; experiencing coffee growing at the Kona Coffee Living History Farm; learning about the region's agricultural roots at the H.N. Greenwell Store Museum. Memorable Meals—Huggo's for fresh seafood; Merriman's landmark Hawaiian regional cuisine; Teshima's Restaurant in Honalo for satisfying local fare and friendly service; Jackie Ray's for seafood and grilled meats; pack a picnic and watch the sunset on one of Kona's many beaches. Late Night—The Island Breeze Luau at the King Kamehameha's Kona Beach Hotel; drinks and dancing at the Mask-querade Bar; refreshing cocktails and light fare at Huggo's on the Rocks. -

Annual SHA Conference, Kauaʻi Community College Puhi, Kauaʻi, October 11-13, 2002
152 15th Annual SHA Conference, Kauaʻi Community College Puhi, Kauaʻi, October 11-13, 2002 The ECS Files: Culture, Biology, and Complexity Dr. Robert J. Hommon, National Park Service Culture, no matter how you view this elusive concept, is fundamental to the proper study of our species. For archaeologists to think of human beings as well-adapted organisms is not all wrong, but it is only half right. Our cultural behavior differs from that of all other organisms in fundamental ways in that we reverse Nature’s direction of control. We have only poorly appreciated our behavioral differences not because they are obscure, rare, or difficult to decipher, but because, like water for fish, they so totally envelop us, hidden in plain sight. The evolved human brain is the adaptation to end adaptations. Using our brain’s enormous capacity, we have fundamentally transformed how we interact with each other and with our environments in the following three ways. First, we have developed a powerful approach to dealing with the environment that reverses the process of adaptation. An adapting organism responds to selective pressures by modifying its form or behavior to fit its environment. In contrast, we human beings practice what we can call ecaptation, the process of altering the environment to fit ourselves by inventing taro fields, compressed air, Boeing 767s, ice sculpture, screwdrivers, beagles, tattoos, Mexico City, and all else that we modify from naturally occurring raw materials. The second uniquely human process of interest is “appropriatizing,” or "proping" for short. The behavior of other organisms is determined almost entirely by their genes and by individual experience of the environment.
