KAHAKUHI O 'AINAHAU "The Flame of 'Ainahau"
Aloha mai kakou, WE ARE NOW INTO THE second month of our 30th year. These are exciting times at ‘Ainahau. We’ve started Uncle Likeke’s Kihapai where over 20 members gathered in Maile Hill’s backyard on Saturday, February 4th to hear Uncle Steve Fifita share his expertise on planting taro, sweet potato, bananas and other crops. The ground was tilled and made ready for planting. Mahalo Uncle Steve for your kokua. WATCH FOR NEWS REGARDING our website. Heather Heleloa, one of our newest members, is hard at work bringing us up to speed in technology. This will allow all of us to get information on our Club at the touch of a button, or is it a key. Mahalo Heather. CHECK THE MANY ARTICLES in this newsletter and the calendar for upcoming events. Join us for our monthly General Membership Meetings and enjoy the entertainment and find out what’s happening in our Club. This month’s meeting is on Sunday, February 26th at 2:00 p.m. Committee chairpersons have been assigned to various committees. We need your kokua, so contact them and help us make this a fun and ex-citing year. A list of the committees and chairpersons is attached to this newsletter. Mahalo to all of you who continue to help in any way you can to keep our Club thriving.

ALOHA EVERYONE, We have some “good stuff” set
out in this February issue—Lani Ryan’s family recipes, a profile by a long time member Tony Cappa and Carl Bode provided a thank you note from Ronald McDon-ald House at the January meeting—sharing it in this newsletter. Jane has provided an important heart health message for February Heart Health Month. A great critique by Jackie of the Kolohe lunch location—makes you envision “kid times” - buying mana pua—thanks Jackie! Looking for more “profile” volunteers - I know you are out there! The Word—what a great inspiring selection in these “unknowing times” for many. Introducing our new website designer, Heather Heleloa. Mahalo to all of you in contributing to ‘Ainahau newsletter!!

Aloha, I AM SO THANKFUL to be serving as your new Hope Pelekikena 'Ekahi and I am looking forward to a year full of fun and adventure. Mahalo to all the new Committee Chairpersons who have confirmed their commitment to ‘Ainahau. It is so inspiring to see so many members of our Club Ohana so eager to contribute their time and effort. I am sure that together our events will be successful and enjoyable. SPRING IS JUST around the corner and I am encourag-ing everyone to clean out their closets and their garag-es for the upcoming garage sale. It will be a one day event to raise monies for the general fund. We will need donated items to sell and volunteers to help with set up, working the garage sale, and cleaning up. Pursuant to tradition, everyone can bring their snacks to share. Mark your calendars for Saturday, March 31, 2012 at my parents’ house in Buena Park as outlined in flyer e-mailed on Feb. 2, 2012 and in this news-letter. ONE OF MY GOALS this year is to complete the revision of the AOKHCC Constitution. The last revision was over a decade ago and we have a mandate to align our governing documents with those of AOHCC and Na Lei Makalapua (formerly Mainland Council). If you would like to join the Constitution Committee, please send me an e-mail at geoff_edye@ ssbc global.net. THIS YEAR WILL also see the return of Sharing Time during the General Meeting and Na Mea Workshops after the General Meeting. For Sharing Time, Tom Kakihara and I are seeking ohana and/or individuals to spare 5-10 minutes to share a song, a story, or a hula during the General Meeting. This will serve to reinforce our commitment to education about Hawaiian culture, music and dance and also be a great opportunity to "talk story" and practice some oral history. If you are interested in participating, please let me know. In addition, after the monthly General Meetings, we will be having some Na Mea workshops to share the crafting talents of our club members and learn cultural skills. I really hope you can join the fun. Malama pono, Edye Hill Hope Pelekikena 'Ekahi

Hawaiian Word of the Day Published with the permission of
Liana Iaea Honda he momi e lei ai--a pearl to wear as a lei
Today’s Hawaiian Pearl is: O’OLE’A Hard, stiff, strong, inflexible, rigid, harsh, rough, rigor, strength, hardness. In viewing the meaning of ‘o’ole’a, you might see it as being negative. Not a good thing! But in my eyes it is a good Hawaiian value. To be o’o’le’a means to be strong in the face of adversity. To stand up for what you believe and know to be good and pono. When I think of ‘o’ole’a I think of the group that found-ed the Punana Leo Preschools (Hawaiian immersion preschools) and subsequently helped to start the Ha-waiian immersion elementary and high schools throughout the state of Hawai’i. This group was defi-nitely ‘o’ole’a. Did you know there were laws back in the mid 1980’s (yes just less than 30 years ago) that prohibited the use of Hawaiian language as the lan-guage of instruction in Hawai’i? The ‘Aha Punana Leo (Punana Leo organization) lobbied at the legislature. They lobbied in Washington D.C., they wrote grants, they talked to people, they were ‘o’ole’a in the face of adversity when people were telling them that saving the Hawaiian language was a useless task, that it was too late. Thanks to their efforts at being ‘o’ole’a, the Hawaiian language is vibrant, vigorous and thriving from our kupuna, our elders, all the way to our kamaiki, our little children. Lauoho ‘o’ole’a – course hair ‘O’ole’a ke a’a koko – hardening of the arteries. Hana ‘o’ole’a – hard physical labor.

When you have a goal in mind, be strong, be ‘o’ole’a, and keep to your chosen path. Aloha nui, Jackie Judd

IN SUPPORT of the Association of Hawaiian Civic Clubs 52rd Convention in November 2011, RESOLUTION R11-31: Promoting CARDIOVASCULAR HEALTH HEART MONTH among Native Hawaiian people”, we celebrate Valentine Day on Tuesday, February 14th, please take a moment out to consider your CARDIOVASCULAR HEALTH: CARDIOVASCULAR disease is the leading cause of death in the U.S. One in every three deaths is from heart disease and stroke, equal to 2,200 deaths per day. Half of the deaths due to heart disease in 2006 were in women. In the U.S. someone has a heart attack every 34 seconds, each minute, someone in the U.S. dies from a heart disease re-lated event. Native Hawaiians have higher mortality rates with associated cardiovascular risk factors of high blood pressure, smoking, obesity, physical inactivity and diabetes. Hawaiian Civic Clubs partners with the American Heart Association to improve HCC members CARDIOVASCULAR health with Life’s Simple 7: 1. Stop smoking cigarettes and other tobacco products, 2. Maintain a healthy body weight, 3. Get a minimum 150 minutes of weekly moderate-intensity physical activity, or 75 minutes of vigorous inten-sity activity, 4. Eat healthy diet consistent with AHA recommendation: low cholesterol, low salt, high fiber, (diabetics, sugar free) 5. Keep total cholesterol less than 200 mg/dL, 6. Keep blood pressure below 120/80 HG, and 7. Keep fasting blood sugar less than 100 mg/dL In keeping with HEART Month, have your blood
pressure checked at the next, `Āinahau o Kaleponi HCC

For this month's Mem-ber Profile, we are rec-ognizing Tony Cappa, who has been a long-time ‘Ainahau member since the club be-gan. He celebrated his 90th birthday on
February 7, 2012. Tony was born in Ingle-wood, California. He spent two years in the Marine Corps during World War 2 and saw action while deployed on Iwo Jima. He spent his working years in the brewery busi-ness. The father of 3 sons and many grand-children, Tony has been a widower for many years and resides in a lovely home in the hills above San Clemente and loves growing plumeria trees. For the last 25 years, Tony has been leading the Oasis Ukulele Strummers at the Senior Citizen’s Group in Corona del Mar. They have a class every Monday afternoon and al-ways end the class with four or five Hawaiian songs. Several women of the group get up and do the hula. In fact, Huel Howser did a TV show on the group about 20 years ago. The membership grew after that and with Tony’s leadership it is up to 125 mem-bers. The Strummers have performed on oth-er television programs and at many activities throughout Orange County, along with the regular Oasis Strummer gatherings. Tony is known as a unique gentleman, musical leader and a friendly volunteer. He gives of himself with great patience and a sparkling personali-ty in teaching the ukulele to all, including new strummers, and has created a friendly and welcoming family atmosphere with the group. He remembers the names of all the members as well as the newcomers. He has a favorite saying: “There’s always room for one more!” From his ‘Ainahau Ohana wishing him a wonderful 90th Birthday Year!

Uncle Likeke's Kihapai Update Column
By Maile & Maggie
Aloha ‘Ainahau Members: As you know from the previous e-mail sent, in December, 2011, a grant request for $1,500.00 was submitted to Hawai’i Maoli to fund a Community Vegetable Garden for ‘Ainahau. The goal of this project is to bring members and their families together to learn about each of the crops…how to obtain, plant, cultivate and harvest the Community Vegetable Garden encouraging members to plant their own garden at home. Hawai’i Maoli has notified us
that the grant was approved!
The name for our garden has been chosen in honor of Uncle Likeke Clowes who for many years grew taro and other vegetables in his daughter, Maile Hill’s yard. Uncle Likeke’s Kihapai or Uncle Likeke’s Garden. We had a very successful turnout for our initial gathering with Uncle Steve Fifita, a landscaper/gardener on February 4, 2012 presenting what is needed to be done to start our project and showed us the proper way to prepare for plant-ing and doing so much more. We formed a work schedule as mentioned in e-mail of February 4, 2012 and if you have not already signed up and would like to help, please contact Maggie Perry ([email protected] (714) 375-9445 or Maile Hill ([email protected]) (562) 987-0506, co-chairs of the project. The first phase which is the planting period will begin on February 25, 2012. We will need help in the following areas: planting, cultivating, water-ing and harvesting. Vegetables to be grown are taro, sweet potato, lettuce, tomatoes, cabbage, green onion, parsley, eggplant and cucumbers.
We also plan to have cooking workshops to
prepare meals with the vegetables. We are excit-
ed to present this project to our members and
look forward to your participation.
As mentioned by Charlene, a new ‘Ainahau website is being constructed by our website designer and
new member, Heather Heleloa! We are excited to have her expertise and talent in creating the website and educating the Website Committee including Heather, Edye Hill, Maile Hubbard, Maile Hill,
Eric Kakihara and myself, Maggie, in her ongoing construction of ‘Ainahau website. We are extremely excited to get ‘Ainahau up to speed in the electronic world of websites. Mahalo Nui Loa Heather—we are grateful for your contribution to the ongoing improvement of ‘Ainahau O Kaleponi Hawaii Civic Club. We will update the members as to when it will be ready for viewing. Aloha, Maggie

Come join us for a surprise performance at General Meeting!!
Feast and Memories too! Such
delicious aromas wafting under our noses at our January Kolohe luncheon. The Dim Sum cart kept tempting us to try the seu mai, the har gow, the spare ribs, gailon (Chinese Brocco-li), and much more. Seeing all these kinds of dishes reminded some of us of our "kid" days in Hawai'i. On some days an old (well he seemed old to us kids) Chinese man, in his shorts and t-shirt, his coolie hat and a long stick across his back with a five-gallon square can hanging from either side, calling our, "Manapua, Pepeeou." If you were lucky enough to have a nickel you night be able to buy one of his treats, much like those on the dim sum cart there at Kim Su. Such nostalgic memories!. And, before we left Kim Su, luncheon just wouldn't be finished without the sweet rice cakes for dessert--which we all happily shared. Come join us on February 29, 2011 (leap year) when we go off to enjoy our friendship, sharing and the Kolohe luncheon again. We're planning to go to Don The Beach-comber on Pacific Coast Highway in Sunset Beach (see Kolohe Lunch announcement).
