5. Hawaii County Womens Hall of Fame <br />C. Ka-ipo reported that she volunteered to chair this event next year. She is <br />looking at scheduling the event in September or October. After some discussion, <br />CSW decided that C. Ka-ipo find out when the Ironman Triathlon will be held and <br />the availability of the hotel. Secondly, D. Pung suggested that the event not be <br />held in September because E. Takazawa is busy planning Womens Health <br />Month. M. Masunaga added that CSW is planning to give out notices to <br />Soroptimist, AAUW, and other womens groups to nominate people for the <br />Womens Hall of Fame and they may be involved in their own Womens Health <br />events. <br />D. Noda made a point of clarification based on A. Saint-Gilles input. Was there <br />going to be further discussion or decision on changing the venue or not? <br />C. Ka-ipo said the reason we dont have a venue in Hilo is because there is no <br />venue in Hilo. C. Kitaoka pointed out that the key point is to give people more <br />notice so they can plan the event. <br />C. Ka-ipo stated that she would like more time to plan the presentation, awards, <br />and memento. She would like to have the event held at the Hapuna Beach <br />Prince Hotel because it is more accessible. She will negotiate with the hotel in <br />getting a bar at the event and reduced hotel accommodations. She will check on <br />the availability of the Hapuna Beach Prince Hotel during the month of October <br />taking into consideration the date of the Ironman Triathlon and provide a report at <br />the next meeting. <br />D. Pung suggested that C. Ka-ipo also inquire with the Hilton Waikoloa Village <br />food and beverage department since CSW has a good relationship with them. <br />B. Health <br />1.
