Knock on wood we will make it through to the end of Hurricane Season on Nov. 30th without any more hurricanes or tropical storms. A good thing too, because we’ve had some busy days. There was the Maui Fair of course, I’m sure you are all exhausted from the fair weekend, whether you were roaming around with the kids or stuck in a little booth making chow fun, funnel cakes or whatever it is your were making for your church or school. Congratulations to all who made the 96th annual Maui Fair such a success. Besides that, we also had some special visitors in town from Fukuyama City. This year Maui County and Fukuyama celebrated our 10th anniversary as sister cities and we had the honor of hosting Fukuyama City Mayor Naoki Aedahiro and his lovely wife, as well as Assembly Vice-Chair Hiroso Tsukamoto and other city officials. Our Fukuyama visitors marched in the Maui Fair parade, took a tour of Maui Brewing Company, had some impromptu hula lessons and of course, helped us to plant another rose in our joint rose garden in front of the county building. Mahalo to everyone who helped host our guests, including Lynn Araki-Regan, her husband Keith, Stephanie Ohigashi, Tiffany Iida, Coralynn Dumlao, Tokie Ogawa, Deidre Tegarden and many more for all your hard work. The next big event coming up is Halloween on Front Street in Lahaina. Don’t forget that there are shuttle buses available for people in Kihei and Wailuku so they don’t have to drive to Lahaina. Contact the Office of Economic Development or the Lahaina Town Action Committee for more information. Right after that in November is the Made in Maui County Festival, held on November 2 and 3 at the Maui Arts and Cultural Center. Call OED for more information on that as well. Finally, I’m very happy to say that my administration has transmitted a request for funding and approval to Maui County Council members, in order to purchase land and easements owned by Wailuku Water Company. I’m very excited about this because we will finally be able to take a valuable public resource and return it to public hands. There’s much to do and little time to do it, but we will get it done together as we always do. Mahalo to all of your for all of your hard work. Mayor Alan M. Arakawa page 3 The High Street Journal An Official Publication of the County of Maui M.D. Minute A Message from Managing Director Keith Regan “True happiness… is not attained through self-gratification, but through fidelity to a worthy purpose.” ―Helen Keller Finding Purpose Amid the Busy Season Maui Fair. Fall break. Halloween. October is a busy month for the County of Maui, and it just starts to accelerate toward the holidays from here. Before we know it, it’s the new year, with stress, calories and busyness showing more wear and tear than many of us would like. But before worrying about making a massive overhaul to diet and exercise, take a moment to strategize. Consider small, manageable steps for wellness. Even just better choices at work. About 40 people gathered in a Honolulu meeting room last month to learn how to live healthier during the “Start Living Healthy @ Work” forum sponsored by the state Department of Health and the Hawaii Employer- Union Benefits Trust Fund (EUTF). The event featured speaker Ryan Picarella, president and CEO of Wellness Council of America, who offered some pretty stunning stats. Studies show that people spend one third or more of their lives at work; if worksite wellness improves, overall health increases. Other interesting findings include: - Most people don’t leave their work, they just leave their boss, meaning that job stress follows employees even after departing from the office each day. - When employees believe their employer genuinely cares about his/her well-being, many of the productivity stats go up. - Also, place has a significant influence on health and longevity. Picarella asked the group: “Which has a bigger impact on well-being: genetics or zip code?” The answer is zip code. He cited places a few miles away from one another in New York City where the life span yields a 15-year difference. Thankfully. our state is among the healthier in the nation. And while EUTF, which provides support to plan, develop and implement worksite wellness programs for state and county employers, and programs like Blue Zones, can help increase worksite wellness, the effort must begin with each individual. The person has to want to get healthier. Picarella said that the most important piece to health, wellness and longevity, is finding purpose, our own deeper sense of meaning in the world. Whether family, friends, community, job, faith — the values that explain the “why” behind our existence holds much weight. Take a moment to think about your “why,” your purpose, as we approach the holiday season. Your significance to the workplace is vital — there is no other individual like you. We hope that you are reminded of your great role with the County of Maui and with our community as a whole. Let’s learn to take small steps together toward healthier choices!

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.

K. Oldroyd English Department Bachelor of Arts This thesis offers an exploration of the Hawaiian Iconoclasm of 1819 through the lens of an historical fiction novella. The thesis consists of two parts: a critical introduction outlining the theoretical background and writing process and the novella itself. 1819 was a year of incredible change on Hawaiian Islands. Kamehameha, the Great Uniter and first monarch of the Kingdom of Hawaiʻi, had recently died, thousands of the indigenous population were dying, and foreign powers were arriving with increasing frequency, bringing with them change that could not be undone.

This Framework would be the largest long-term investment in our nation’s infrastructure and competitiveness in nearly a century – $1.2 trillion over eight years – to help make our economy more sustainable, resilient, and just. The Bipartisan InFrastructure Framework is crucial to making meaningFul progress on one oF the most pressing and unifying challenges Facing our country – the need for comprehensive investment in public transportation; roads; bridges; passenger and Freight rail; drinking water and wastewater; clean energy and electriFication; legacy pollution cleanup; cyber-attack and eXtreme weather-resiliency; and universal broadband access. Thus, we believe that this Framework deserves bipartisan support in the United States Senate and the United States House oF Representatives. As was the case with the historic American Rescue Plan – where Democrat, Republican and independent mayors came together through The United States ConFerence oF Mayors to help secure $350 billion in direct relieF For state and local governments – we know that details oF the Bipartisan InFrastructure Framework will need to be developed by the leadership and relevant committees in Congress.
