Mililani Town Association I hope you are safe and healthy. Board of Directors One of the byproducts of 2020 events has been more and more people President...................................................Bob Barrett enjoying the great Mililani landscapes and exercising outdoors. I have not Vice President.....................................Michelle Kidani seen this many walkers, joggers and bike riders, ever! I can tell you that Secretary......................................Josie Hart Ka`anehe this has forced me to drive a little slower, be more mindful of pedestrians Treasurer...........................................Valerie Okimoto and just be more cautious overall behind the wheel. Especially when Directors....................................Will Kane, Neil Takeda, there are so many people with some sort of earphones. If they can’t Michael Magaoay, Noriko Salangdron, Roger Babcock hear me, I better do a much better job at watching out for them! I am especially careful when I am approaching or turning at a traffic light and when there are lots of MTA Staff Managers parked cars along the side of the road. You never know when someone will enter the crosswalk at General Manager the wrong time or if there are children that could dart out behind a parked car. Maybe we can all be David O’Neal, CMCA, AMS, PCAM more mindful and careful, not only these days, but every day! [email protected] Back in July, we went through the stress and struggles of Hurricane Douglas. As it turns out, Douglas Assistant General Manager Covenants & Design Manager passed just to the north of Oahu and it was barely a rainstorm for us. But it was uncomfortably close. Katherine Cueva, CMCA, AMS How fortunate and blessed were we?! Our family spent the entire day clearing off our lanai and [email protected] moving everything into the garage and the house. We spent time securing things at our business to make sure we had a business to go back to when this was all over. Did you know that only two storms Controller have made direct landfall? Hurricane Dot in 1959 and an unnamed storm in 1871. I can only imagine Lynelle Tamashiro, CPA, CMCA the destruction of a hurricane’s direct hit on Oahu. The fact that Douglas just missed us will not stop [email protected] me from doing all the same things to prepare the next time a storm is headed for us. Because when Aquatics & Safety Manager it comes to mother nature, you just never know. We should always be ready to plan for the worst and Kaleo Perreira, CPO pray for the best. Stay ready Mililani! Hurricane season lasts through November 30.
