    2 TIMELINE Native Hawaiian Community

    1959 Statehood Rapidly growing tourist industry introduced people of Hawaii to how others
    lived; caused cost of living to increase; more realized the importance of a college education

    1960s Kamehameha Schools pushed people to mainland colleges with book of ‘preferred
    colleges’

    1960s Parochial Schools Hawaii Jesuit high schools school connection to Gonzaga; Seattle U;
    University of Portland

    1960s Retired Military Enlistees Hawaiian military personal based in Tacoma and Bremerton
    retire in the Puget Sound area after their service ends

    1962 Seattle World’s Fair Hawaiian entertainers and Hawaii residents came to Seattle;
    Hawaiian Pavilion; Buddy Brown?

    1963 Waikinikona Club Merchant seaman from Hawaii working on Matson ships establish the
    club to connect with each other while in port in Seattle

    Mid 1980’s Hula Competitions start bringing a renewed interest and enlightenment in the
    purpose of the institution of Hula as ‘Keepers of the Culture’, expanding into Hawai’ian History,
    Legends and Myths, Language, Poetry, Chants, Music, traditional to contemporary clothing,
    traditional craftsmanship, protocols and awareness. The understanding, respect and honor for the
    Institution of Hula was uplifted to a cultural status. The Hula became a means of providing a
    visual expression of the oral traditions rather than just tourist entertainment. The Hula as an art
    form reached a much higher level of excellence.

    1992 Hawaii Radio Connection (originally called something else)

    1994 Hailipai newspaper established

    1995 Hawaiiloa & Hokulea Voyage The return visit of Native Hawaiian navigators aboard the
    Hawaiialoa and Hokulea to Alaska & PNW led to interest in and rebirth of Hawaiian cultural
    practices. The canoes landed at Golden Gardens. The community took 1.5 years to prepare for
    the visit. The (9) logs for the hulls of the Hawai’iloa were gifted to the Hawai’ian’s by Native
    Alaska Tribes – Haida, Tshimshian and Klingkit, coming from their forests in Southeast Alaska.
    The Hokule’a is a fiberglass replica and constructed twenty years before the Hawai’iloa. The
    purpose of the Voyage was for Hawai’iloa to ‘return home’ to Alaska in gratitude to those tribes
    for the gift of the logs. Hokule’a ‘s voyage was one of Goodwill to the Hawai’ian Communities
    up and down the West Coast from Washington State down to San Diego, California, making
    many stops along the way. The welcoming/landing ceremonies here in Washington were
    conducted by Native Americans of the different areas where the canoes stopped. The Hawai’ian
    community prepared to respond to the welcoming protocol of the Native Americans. The
    Native Americans did present their canoes as part of the ceremonies at all of the stops. It would
    not have been appropriate for the Hawai’ian canoe to be used to ‘greet’ the voyaging canoes
    during the ceremonies. That was for the Native Americans.
    Many reconnections were made, including families: Nani Stormo and her nephew, a crew
    member, who she hadn’t seen for a long time.

    1995 Canoe Clubs begin to be established in Washington State and Oregon through the present
    day

    1996(?) Lokahi ‘Ohana O Hawai’i was established as an resource entity for Native Hawai’ians
    and provided many cultural programs, lectures and language classes, awareness bulletins on the
    Hawai’ian Sovereignty movement etc.

    2002 Northwest Hawaii Times newspaper established
