PICNIC  August 15, 2015


ANOTHER AWESOME SUCCESS!  Members, families and friends gathered together for our annual Ohana picnic, held at Mid Pacific Institute's Scudder Hall and courts.  While shoppers picked up some great products and bargains at our country store and baked goods sale, the "younger" crew ventured outdoors for friendly competition in our games and activities.

Mahalo to all who helped and/or donated items and goodies so that others could enjoy the festivities!  Your Senpais put in many extra hours and super-charged energy to make this exciting event happen.  Please be sure to thank them!  Special thanks to Ann Oda, Elaine Higa, and Annette Wong for their very generous donations and year-long support!  You are INCREDIBLE!!!

"I see my life flashing in front of me!"

Think small!

"Hmmm!  BAD ADVICE!"

"They used to be such a NICE group!"

"Oh, no!  Here comes another one!"

"Okay, guys!  You know we were kidding about the push-ups, RIGHT?"

"Yow!!  It's raining balloons!"

"That's it!  No shower for me tonight!"

"This is spookier than kumite with Sensei!"

"Okay, okay!  No push-ups for 2 weeks!"

"Hey!  We should add this to our reflex drills!"

Still agile after all these years!

"Let me help YOU cool off!"

"Hey!  What happened to my soap?"

"Is THAT all you got?"

Here comes a balloon sandwich!  ... even AFTER  time out was called!
