I am writing to bring this to your attention. There is an online petition going on that is steadily
growing quickly in the last couple of days. People are signing it from not only the Big Island but
from around the entire country asking to please save our Hawaii County Band. It would be a
huge shame to lose something that is so historic for Hilo...127 years old! My family ancestor
Joaquin Reis Carvalho was the founder and organizer and the first Bandmaster of the band.
Please don't let this piece of history slip away during these hard economic times. There has
got be a way to find funding for it.
Please take a look at this petition and see what the people are saying.
