"On the Road Again" <br /> <br />Yes, the Foster Grandparents took in <br />Some interesting sites and gained new knowledge during the recent <br />DOE School Spring Recess <br /> <br />Kathy Arnold and Rudy Serain offered a very <br />helpful reading workshop held at Hilo Union <br />School Library. Many children's books were <br />available to peruse. The FG's each read a book <br />and shared how they would use it with students <br />in their classroom. <br /> <br />The celebration, honoring King Kalakaua, was <br />enjoyed — also the day of the Merrie Monarch <br />Parade. <br /> <br />Lorraine Godoy, second from the left on the <br />back row, spoke with the FG's about the <br />many services offered the community by <br />HCEOC. <br /> <br />Behind the scenes at KTA Superstore <br />The bakery, the meat 'market', the coool <br />vegetable and fruit 'room' and the large <br />warehouse were all on the tour. To see how a <br />large supermarket operates was very <br />enlightening. <br /> <br />The 'sites and sounds' of Hilo Harbor proved to <br />be fun, interesting, but also serious. Mr. David <br />Waldran, head of Harbor Security, spoke, <br />showed a video and gave a guided walking tour <br />of the premises. Since 9/11 many new security <br />measures are in place to keep the Harbor 'safe <br />and sound'. <br /> <br />A selection of veeeery expensive sports <br />cars was parked at the Harbor. These were <br />on hand for the 'rich and famous' to take <br />them for a spin around the island. The FG's <br />could only afford a photo with a car. <br /> <br />Kupuna News 3 July - September 2008 <br />
