Class of '79 Board Meeting Wednesday, October 6 , 2010 at 7pm

Aloha Crusaders of 1979.

We will be having our bi-weekly class board meeting at the Crusader Lounge (Alumni Club House) on Wednesday, October 6, 2010 at 7pm. Please, if you can, come and join us in planning future events and activities for our class members and their families so that we can enjoy the fellowship of our brotherhood known as the Class of '79.

The September 23rd meeting was attended by Greg Perry, Tony Souza,  James Santos, Cody Correa, Albert Nakanishi, and myself, Mel Pilien.
 
Cody Correa was there to accept his duties as coach for the Saint Louis Alumni Softball tournament.  He will be scheduling practices so that we are better prepared to win back the perpetual trophy from the Class of '80.  For those of you who did not know, we have an on-going challenge with the Class of '80 where the winner of the Class of '79 vs Class of '80 softball game claims the perpetual trophy for the year until the next Alumni softball tournament.
 
The softball shirts have been ordered and recieved.  We are currently looking for a shirt design and designer.  If you are interested in contributing a design, please let us know.
 
On Tuesday, October 26th,  we will be checking out our fellow classmate and entertainer Bryan Tolentino, who plays every Tuesday night with Weldon Kekuoha from 6-9pm at the Kane Ka Pila Grill at the Outrigger Reef on the Beach (where Cilly's used to be).  Come on join us for some good Hawaiian Music.
 
 With so few public bowling alleys and the difficulty of getting on base for the military lanes, we are in the planning stages of having a Wii bowling tournament over at the Alumni Clubhouse.  It is said that Wii bowling is equally a difficult as real bowling so keep an eye out for further information.
 
The First Annual Chili Cook Off was a blast.  Good weather, good food, cold beers, and good company.  Albert Nakanishi was declared the winner with his outstanding all meat, no beans chili.  Thanks to all that participated.
 
Again, several classmates have expressed an interest in having a Poker game night coordinated. This can be done. If you are interested in playing, please call me (351-2862) or Karlton (286-8727). We would like to have some firm commitments in order to proceed.

Memor et Fidelis
