First Unofficial Joint Meeting of the North Dakota and Iowa Chapters of the Alumni of Hawaiian Mission Academy

The First Unofficial Joint Meeting of the North Dakota and Iowa Chapters of the Alumni of Hawaiian Mission Academy took place last evening, March 28, 2014, in a booth at Perkins of Bismark, North Dakota.  In attendance were representatives of the Classes of 1971 (Larry Pascual) and 1970 (Don Brown.)  Greek salad, tomato soup, and grilled cheese sandwich was provided, as desired.

Discussed were:

  1. World Affairs
  2. The effects of the economy
  3. How much older the other one looked than we remembered
  4. Who has what kids and where they are and what they are doing
  5. Where the members present have been, what they have done, and what they are doing
  6. Memories (probably fairly accurate) of going with the dorm to Scotty's, the Scuba Belle, teachers, who we have some contact with, etc.
  7. A challenge to a Class basketball game was made then withdrawn because we were tired and were afraid of getting hurt.  Discussed where we were already hurting.
  8. Why we can't move back to Hawaii (not so much the restraining orders, more $$ related.) 
  9. Next meeting:  Hope we don't wait another 43 years to have one.
  The meeting was adjourned in the parking lot.

Meeting Facilitator:  Larry Pascual (it was his State and he knew the good restaurants.)
Recording Secretary:  Don Brown (we had to give him something to do.)
