It’s that time of season. The skies are beginning to clear up, the sun is becoming brighter and Molokai High School’s spring sports are about to ensue. This season will see the Farmers compete in five different sports, and coaches predict nothing but a bright forecast for their athletes.
Tennis
While many of the spring sports are still in their pre-season conditioning phase, tennis got a head start with its first tournament this past weekend in Maui.
In a two-day series, the Molokai High boys’ and girls’ tennis teams were defeated in both matches. On Friday the boys lost to St. Anthony High School 3-2, while the girls lost 5-0.

Not Pono
Today while visiting the Kapaakea cemetary, my children and I saw something very disturbing. After placing flowers on the graves, we saw a freshly caught deer hanging on the fence line. Who ever decided to do this had no respect! People go to the cemetery to visit their loved ones at their final resting place, and to see this it is not right. Nothing wrong with hunting and providing for your family, but to waste the meat and discard it like that shows that this was done by someone new to the game. Hopefully this does not cause you to have some of our or maybe even your own kupunas to come and visit you when you are out there in the dark catching more deer.
Respect Present Kalaupapa
We are writing on behalf of the Kalaupapa patient community to let you know that we do not support the passing of Senate Bill no. 2771 and House Bill No. 2975. We are, now, just a handful of us but we feel we have to stand up and be heard.
Year of the Tiger Ends with a Bang
There was a good turnout at the gun exhibit entitled "Guns of the Royal Hong Kong Police.” A total of eleven handguns, rifles and shotguns were displayed as well as artifacts from the RHKP shooting club and the flag of the former British Crown Colony. It was nice to see entire families attend this hands-on exhibit and there were many relevant questions about the Hong Kong Police and the firearms used by them.
The Chinese law enforcement gun show is one of the components of the Chinese Year of the Tiger Celebration along with the Parade, Jumping Lion dances and Festival already held on Molokai. Look for another gun exhibit or show in June at Mel Chung-Gunsmith in Kaunakakai.
