Message from President Kristi:

Thank you so much for your help and support of such a wonderful event!  I was told by many residents that this was the best event the building has ever had and the residents were so touched by Rotary's kindness and generosity.  The rec deck is normally empty with no life.  I couldn't believe its transformation that day.  It was filled with children's laughter playing in three bouncy houses, a crowd of people enjoying the libations, two bands playing great music, people enjoying the delicious food, dancing, and having a wonderful time.  I felt overwhelmed with happiness hearing the many comments of how much they needed this and seeing the love and aloha shared by those who attended.

 

One of the residents emailed that night saying, "We were lost and you took us in to paraphrase an ancient scripture.  The humanity evidenced these past four weeks has been extremely humbling; our gratitude to you for stepping up, giving a boost and having our backs.  Kindly pass along our thanks to all involved today.  Mahalo nui loa.  WILL"
