Aloha Dear Friends,

The Kauai Pow Wow Council will NOT be hosting a pow wow this September. It was a difficult decision to arrive at, but one we thought was in the best interest of all involved.

We have also had some changes on the Board of Directors. Our Vice President, Lisa Jobson has resigned. She has been a wonderful asset to the council and her organization and work in the frybread booth will surely be missed. We wish her well in her next endeavor. Her position has been filled by Alfred Darling. You may remember Alfred as the man behind the camera. He was the one who put together the wonderful video of past powwows that was shown at the school outreach afternoon and at the evening on the pow wow grounds.

Our secretary, Jane Ely, has also resigned due to her extensive traveling schedule. She will continue to work with the Council whenever she is on island. And we thank her for her past service and wish her well in all her travels. Her position has been filled by Schar Freeman. Schar had been on the council before as President and
we welcome her back and look forward to a great working relationship with all of our members.

Although we will not do a traditional pow wow this year there may be another event that we will host. That is in the planning process right now and as it comes together we will let you know.

Thank you so much for all of your support and understanding.

Mahalo,
Dale Jacobs
President
Kauai Pow Wow Council
