    It is not for Kokua!!!! Kokua was cancelled this year due to Jack needing a break. If it is really an Ed show and not a JJ show, the tickets may be easier to get?

    how many people can fit into this place?

    Did you just say that? Really? Do you not know this fan community at all? :lol:

    Saw my first PJ show in Honolulu 2006 the week before they opened for U2. Bought my tix on Wed before the show on Sat. Look at the pictures all the time. You can see the empty seats. I was amazed! Tourism is down this year much more than 06'.

    As forThe Kokua Foundation, I belong to the organization. I have been to every Kokua Fest done. This year Jack said he "took the year off." This auction is being done for Earth Day since donations are down due to the economy.

    If ever you have a chance...it would probably be this Summer here in the middle of the sea. Why not?

    The Waikiki Shell is outside and has 2400 reserved seats, with another possible 6,000 for lawn gen admin. The Blaisdell Center, where they played last time, seats about 9,000.
    The Concert Hall is Oahu's performing arts center, and seats like 2,100 for the opera and symphony.
    The Maui Arts and Cultural Center's Castle Theater is also an option too (inside for eV)....smaller with only 1,200 seats and sweet acoustics. Maui's top spot.

    Hard to say D? This is Hawaii? In 2006 they played on the North Shore by Waimea Bay for a small group? If I hear... I will post. ;)

    I know me too. Just don't think JJ would use Earth Day in an April Fools joke though? Who knows? :)

    Lots of Learning at 4th National Farm to Cafeteria Conference

    Our Program Director and Volunteer & Outreach Coordinator for 'AINA In Schools just returned from a great conference: Going the Distance & Shortening It, the 4th National Farm to Cafeteria Conference in Portland, Oregon. They got to meet farm to school advocates from throughout the U.S., along with representatives from Canada. On their first day, they toured Abernathy Elementary School's gardens and ate a delicious school lunch made entirely from scratch. They also participated in trainings on program evaluation, workshops on school gardens and using online social networking, and more.

    As state-level representatives to the national farm to school network, our Kokua staff presented an update of progress on farm to school in Hawai'i and got to hear about what's happening in other western states as well. Oregon has some big news-last year the state passed legislation to start a state farm to school program and have a full-time position in the Department of Education focused on farm to school!

    One of the highlights of the conference was meeting Dr. Susan Rubin, founder of Better School Food. She provides resources to parents seeking to improve school food for their children. We know that's a hot topic for many of you, so check out her site!

    To learn more about the national farm to school movement and get access to excellent resources on farm to school, go to www.FarmToSchool.org.

    The White House has an Organic Kitchen Garden!

    First Lady Michelle Obama has emphasized the need for fresh, unprocessed, locally grown food; on the Vernal Equinox, those words were put to action. Schoolchildren from Washington D.C.'s Bancroft Elementary joined the First Lady and helped her dig up the soil for the 1,100-square-foot plot. The last time a victory garden was planted at the White House was by First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt in 1943. The organic garden's most important role, Mrs. Obama told The New York Times, is to educate children about healthful, locally grown fruit and vegetables at a time when obesity and diabetes have become a national concern. Here are some of the fresh items the Obamas will have growing: cilantro, tomatillos, hot peppers, a variety of lettuce, spinach, chard, collards, black kale, and berries. There will also be honey! Check out a map of the garden to see what else is growing on!


    Last month we asked you to support an Organic Garden at the White House. Thank you! We also asked you to identify a landscape near and transform your own yard, community, or schoolyard. Our call to action still stands. This month, we encourage you to dig your hands into the earth, plant a small garden or expand on an existing garden to commemorate this monumental event!



    Mahalo to Kokua Calendar Participants

    In January, we announced our annual Kokua Calendar contest. This year's contest added an element of service to the community.

    Iroquois Point Elementary, Ms. Lariscy's & Ms. Rahaim's classes - gr. 6

    Yeah, what happened to it?

    Did they let it slip by accident?
    I kind of think so, typical.
