Matt + Renate Kolohe Korner

Renate is Noelle's cousin (super cool). Matt is simply awesomeness. We are so happy that they are married. They got married in New York last year but waited until Renate's brother got off his mission for our Church before they had a Hawaii reception. I was lucky enough to bring the Kolohe Korner to their party and have a super rockin time with their super rockin guests!

Keola + Marcie Kolohe Korner

Keola and Marcie were married on April 26th at Anela Gardens and it was AWESOME! I'll post some pics of the rest of the day sometime soon, but for now here's their Kolohe Korner. This group brought a heaping spoonful of radness into the Korner.

Island Air Explorers - Kolohe Korner

When Aloha Airlines ceased operations last April one of the many losses was their Explorers Youth Program. This program brings high school age students behind the scenes at an airline to be exposed to a variety of areas in aviation. Island Air stepped up to the plate and took over the Explorers Program.

Over the past 10 weeks Island Air employees (among others) volunteered their own time to show these kids all kinds of things that go on in an airline operation. Some example topics: flight attendants, pilots, dispatch, operations, maintenance, TSA, ATC, airport crash and rescue, and more... Sounds awesome huh? You can read the official description of the program here.

Last night was the graduation ceremony for the first class of Island Air Explorers, CONGRATULATIONS to all involved... This group ROCKED the Kolohe Korner!

Don't worry, this first pic is Island Air volunteers, not high school students...

One of the counselors, Lance (he's a Captain), had eye surgery on a Monday and was at Explorers on that Wednesday, eye patch and all. Needless to say the kids got a kick out of that one.

A HUGE mahalo goes out to everyone involved in this program. In my opinion it was a 110% success! If you are involved in the Explorers Program click here.

Kolohe Korner - Faith in God

Noelle is the leader for this amazing group of girls at Church in a
program called Faith in God. It's a great program and this group of
girls is awesome. They had a special "appreciation" dinner where they
got to bring two guests of their choice for a nice meal, a short
program, and the Kolohe Korner. It was so much fun being there with
them and taking these pictures. Thanks, girls, for letting me come!
