2015 NEBB Annual Conference Brochure A Sea of Change: A World of Opportunities H O N O L U L U Hawaii April 16-18 Hyatt Regency Waikiki Beach Resort & Spa NEBB_Brochure_2015_NEW_D.indd 1 12/8/14 9:37 AM A Message from EBB’s President Dear NEBB Professionals, Friends and Colleagues, Barbara and I are incredibly excited to invite you to join us for the 2015 NEBB Annual Conference, to be held on April 16-18, 2015 at the world renowned Hyatt Regency Waikiki Beach Resort & Spa in Honolulu, Ha- waii. We hope you are able to extend the trip with your family to have some fun – Hawaiian style. You can choose to get adventurous and explore the island or do nothing at all and relax. Sink your toes in legendary sands, hike Diamond Head, visit Pearl Harbor, snorkel in Hanauma Bay, or walk to the Honolulu Zoo or the Waikiki Aquarium. The 2015 NEBB Annual Conference theme is “A Sea of Change: A World of Opportunities.” As we celebrate NEBB’s 45th birthday, this marks the first time the NEBB Annual Conference is being held in Hawaii. Our hotel was selected with fun and flexibility in mind. Balanced between the idyllic beauty of the legendary Waikiki Beach and the dynamic city center, The Hyatt Regency Waikiki Beach Resort & Spa offers a vibrant escape that seamlessly combines relaxation, adventure and authentic Hawaiian hospitality. The guestrooms are the largest on the beach and feature private lanais with spectacular views of the city of Honolulu, the Pacific Ocean and the famous Waikiki Beach. From big to small, our location has it all! New for this year is the addition of training seminars prior to and after our conference to allow attendees the op- portunity to prepare for several of our certification exams. The conference will also provide ample opportunities for networking with NEBB leaders, NEBB professionals, HVAC product and service providers, government represen- tatives and other industry professionals. In addition to our technical and business programs, we have an outstand- ing program for guests and spouses that includes a spouse breakfast, a women’s networking session, a session facilitated by a renowned memory expert featuring skills to improve memory; deep sea fishing; golf tournament and a list of other activities that this beautiful island offers. For the deep-sea fishing enthusiasts, we are offering an all-day fishing tournament in the waters off of Oahu. The coastal shelf has a big drop off just off the island of Oahu; the water gets very deep very fast off this coastline (6,000’ +), so it’s a great place to find the big fish such as Pacific Blue Marlin, Yellowfin Tuna, Mahi Mahi, Wahoo, and Skipjack Tuna. The tournament will be a team format on private sport-fishing charters – 6 persons per boat. For the Golf enthusiasts, the 18th Annual NEBB Golf Tournament will be held at the Royal Hawaiian Golf Club, and this will provide you with a golf experience you will never forget. Designed by Perry Dye and his famous brother Pete, the course is one of the most unusual and lush golf courses in the world, and offers unparalleled views of the mountains in a very “Jurassic Park-like” setting. We look forward to seeing you there! Aloha!

P. 2 1 Digit zed by Google \ PREFACE AT the request of the Board of Education, I have .fi. endeavored to write a simple and concise history of the Hawaiian people, which, it is hoped, may be useful to the teachers and higher classes in our schools. As there is, however, no book in existence that covers the whole ground, and as the earlier histories are entirely out of print, it has been deemed best to prepare not merely a school-book, but a history for the benefit of the general public. This book has been written in the intervals of a labo­ rious occupation, from the stand-point of a patriotic Hawaiian, for the young people of this country rather than for foreign readers. This fact will account for its local coloring, and for the prominence given to certain topics of local interest. Especial pains have been taken to supply the want of a correct account of the ancient civil polity and religion of the Hawaiian race. This history is not merely a compilation. It is based upon a careful study of the original authorities, the writer having had the use of the principal existing collections of Hawaiian manuscripts, and having examined the early archives of the government, as well as nearly all the existing materials in print.
