Hawaii County Women’s Hall of Fame – Committee <br />At the last meeting it was discussed that we would address the Hall of Fame in <br />couple more years. We’re reorganizing our focus and we should do it in 2015. We <br />need more advertising. <br />Farrah Gomes reported that we should target the Polynesian culture – Hawai‘i. <br /> <br />B. Mentoring <br />Lee Watanabe distributed the Mentoring Form created by Kathie Peters. <br />Kathie Peters reported that the form was based on what the Konawaena girls <br />expressed they want on the form. Carol Kitaoka reported that she’s in contact with <br />the girls in Konawaena. They took the girls to the career fair in September. She’s in <br />touch with Kelly Dahl for another event where they will meet the Chief Justice of the <br />Supreme Court. <br />Katie Nova mentioned that we should not have select girls from one school; need to <br />do more than one school. She mentioned that Cyd is interested in being a mentor. <br />Carol Kitaoka suggested each member take a school to promote mentoring. <br />Breze Hyatt reported that they have the Sista Group and the contact person in Kona <br />is Bernie Halemau. They have a mentoring program where they go to different <br />schools offering their program. Kathy Peters suggested that we can utilize her <br />program; we don’t have to do the group and that we can give them the resources <br />and disseminate the information to the girls. <br />Breze Hyatt will take that information back to HIHAF and suggest that one of their <br />board members be on the mentoring committee. <br />Kathy Peters mentioned that we can promote this to every school on the island <br />(private, charter, etc.) <br />Katie Nova reported that she sent each member copies of the mentoring form. We <br />need to look for a chair person for this committee. We need a fact sheet of what this <br />project is about; Farrah Gomes reported that we need to have the agenda posted on <br />the County website. Lee Watanabe to check into it. <br /> <br />4 <br /> <br />
