Big Mahalo for Softball 2011!

Aloha everyone!! 
Just wanted to say THANK YOU VERY MUCH for participating in the Alumni softball tournament. All the monies raised will help us do some of the things that go beyond our school budget. Also, for those you that stopped by to purchase stuff from our little tent, another big thanks. As the season is just around the corner for us, I hope to have our team represent all of you that have come before my current players. We are always a work in progress but we'll play hard, represent all of you the best way we can, be gracious winners and humble in defeat. If you have time during the season please don't hesitate to come by and say hello. 
Malama Pono!! 
Coach Gus

Softball! This Weekend!

Gentlemen,

Thank you for your patience.  This is the final schedule.  As we will only have one division we will be playing with the 14 inch outseam ball.  Sorry, us older folk need to equalize the playing field.  This will be a true test of your athleticism--no excuses 07 (Travis--we scheduled both of your teams to play each other so you may pick up players to fill in--I would think your Dads would fit in nicely.  Jesse, Carrick, Austin, Kevin, etc).  
 
Remember, no alcohol on the field.  Please pick up your opala and kokua Project Grad and our baseball team.  Lastly, as gentleman of Kalaepohaku please note that the flushing sanitoi is reserved for the women and children.  See you on the diamond.

Your SLAA Sports Committee,
Buddy Los Banos, Brian Viola, Brad Costales, Keone Batoon, Adrian Keanu and Eric Tanaka

Update on Karlton Borges

'79ers,

Good news as Karlton's Condition has become stable. Karlton was visited by Mel P. and Steven S. Friday evening, and both had positive things to say about his condition. Grant K. also visited him earlier. Though he is unable to speak due to the tubes in his throat, he was able to communicate by writing on a piece of paper, as his sign language needs much improvement. He is not out of the woods yet and a long recovery is ahead of him. With Prayers and Support his future is bright. Thanks to all that have kept him in their prayers.

Memor et Fidelis '79

A request for Fred Aiwohi, '77

To the Crusader Ohana,

Fred Aiwohi, '77, is presently battling stomach cancer. We ask for your thoughts and prayers as he forges bravely ahead. We also ask if you are interested in purchasing a Fight For Fred shirt. Our classmate Paul Fukuda has initiated this drive. Paul's son Jacob is entering his first MMA fight and he is incorporating the upcoming fight along with Fred's fight on a commemorative shirt.
 
The cost of the shirt is $20. The proceeds will go to help the family defray medical costs. If you are interested you can make the check out to Paul Fukuda and mail it to: 2248A Kaiwiki Rd., Hilo, HI 96720. We will make arrangements to have the shirt delivered to you.
 
Should you have any further questions you may contact me or Thom Haia at the above listed addresses.
 
Again, please keep Fred and his family in your prayers. Mahalo for your consideration. Aloha Ke Akua.
