Invitation from Catherine Bauknight:
Here’s an announcement of the event in the Pasadena Weekly.
Just wanted to throw this idea out there if anybody wants a cool project, to make an iCal calendar with all the Hawaiian Kingdom holidays, historical events, etc. Could also include state holidays and such, but main thing is the original kingdom holidays. (I have a copy of a Hawaiian Historical Society calendar a few years ago that had all the holidays and a lot of good historical dates if anyone wanted to work from that.) I’m not sure exactly how it’s done, but can’t be too hard to do. It uses iCalendar format. Along with being useful and educational for those in Hawaii and Hawaiians abroad, it would also show Hawaii along with all the other countries in Apple’s calendar downloads and other iCal calendar respositories, which would be a small way to create some awareness and curiosity.
