Now we are being asked to give counts two weeks before the meetings and can add, but not reduce, one week out. This means our deadlines are much earlier than in the past. While we know that life happens and you may have to cancel at the last minute, you will need to pay for your missed meal, since we have to pay for it. Please let the reservationist know as soon as possible that you won’t be attending and if you miss the deadline but would still like to attend,<br />get in touch with the reservationist, since they will know what is possible. Once you send your email RSVP, please check for the confirmation email within a day or two. If you don’t get it, please contact the reservationist to be sure it was received.<br />Aloha,<br />Carolyn and Lowell<br />ACH Co-Presidents</span></h3></div><div><span style="background-color: #ffa400;">*****************************************************************************</span></div><div><b><u><span style="color: black;">Reminders & Notices: </span></u></b>Next Meeting: Thursday, July 20th, Natsunoya Tea House</div><div><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: left; margin-right: 1em; text-align: left;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnztbTsh7fCuSJAg0AWMtgOucNYX0aOzaLm3Va-imz5T16rMpd_Y_9MWY_0V13EXCa_7MitMLAtHm-1xlJ93IgKY5nnRM21aFhEPHQlKKMDVgfdjlv6DDUtFi2ENdmzSwT0oNvIZblMlXdV3dwpg6__ZfOCh30RuY-9fkW3tiH1oPyMFlqwHPA3UcMKMU/s4032/20230614_192013.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1960" data-original-width="4032" height="156" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnztbTsh7fCuSJAg0AWMtgOucNYX0aOzaLm3Va-imz5T16rMpd_Y_9MWY_0V13EXCa_7MitMLAtHm-1xlJ93IgKY5nnRM21aFhEPHQlKKMDVgfdjlv6DDUtFi2ENdmzSwT0oNvIZblMlXdV3dwpg6__ZfOCh30RuY-9fkW3tiH1oPyMFlqwHPA3UcMKMU/s320/20230614_192013.jpg" width="320" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><h3>At the Waikiki Yacht Club June Meeting 2023</h3></td></tr></tbody></table></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>^<span style="background-color: #0b5394;">^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^</span></div><div><h2 style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">Club members </span>Carolyn and David Gire <span style="font-weight: normal;">recently returned from a 103 day voyage around the world on Cunard’s Queen Victoria that touched 28 ports in 16 countries on 4 continents, traversing both<br />the Panama and Suez canals.

On the nearby island of Sumba, they witness a ritualized form of human sacrifice by equestrian warriors. They then journey 50,000 years into the past to live with Asmat headhunters in the remote West Papua regency of New Guinea.</div><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-size: medium;"> Ted and I visited Komodo in 2022 and also several Asmat </span><span style="font-size: medium;">villages in 2022 and 2016.

In the early 1970s, </span><span style="font-size: medium;">these two brothers set off on an audacious adventure to </span><span style="font-size: medium;">follow in the footsteps of the naturalist Alfred Russel Wallace </span><span style="font-size: medium;">(1823-1913) through many of the 17,000 islands of the </span><span style="font-size: medium;">Indonesian archipelago. Like Wallace, who developed his </span><span style="font-size: medium;">theory of natural selection independently of Charles Darwin, </span><span style="font-size: medium;">the brothers journeyed across a nation that covers two </span><span style="font-size: medium;">million square miles of ocean, among lands which harbor still </span><span style="font-size: medium;">uncategorized varieties of creatures, dragons, pirates, </span><span style="font-size: medium;">healers and headhunters.

Who knew that Japan, Asia and the Pacific Islands were just a short flight away. For $15, one could fly on a “mac” flight and bring home beautiful goods, even furniture. It was during this time that she learned the lifelong lesson that a smile is the universal language.<br /></span><span style="font-weight: normal;"> After 3 years in Afghanistan following the war, Terrilea's daughter was relocated to the United Nations in Geneva, Switzerland. It was there that her two “Swiss grandkids” grew up. As a child, rereading "Heide" countless times, Terrilea never thought she would end up with free hotel, car, and family in this exquisitely beautiful country. This talk will focus on her adventures in Switzerland and nearby France.</span></span></h3><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiYRrLRn15nsBbykw4NNLjEXyHjqIqgEp4-WGRscwnXNDDuWWZ4YGGLOpaVZ18kmCl00QnT0cwkQU9w1WaIpu06mSkZEAoKIs8z26bcqn17kNeOa_0M-eY8-6Nx4HNCjqQhuoXjPMjB3LAkEiOlU02nTjOMaCmgftcXnxeU5oNleDRDcH95SJD_EFwj/s4032/20230316_192700.jpg" style="clear: left;

text-align: left;"> a work that entailed five decades of research. The ceilings represent the singular surviving evidence of a brilliant culture that thrived under Muslim rule and that continued to manifest itself under the Norman Christians. Tom contends that consideration must be given to the possibility that the craftsmen and artists who constructed and painted the ceilings were Sicilians, not artisans imported from other parts of the Islamic world as most scholars contend. Tom also delves into new views of the meaning of the construction and the paintings that fill the multitude of niches on the ceilings. Tom Klobe is a professor emeritus and for 29 years was director of the University of Hawaii Art Gallery. He taught courses in design, museum studies, and Islamic and medieval art history. His interest in Islam began as a Peace Corps volunteer in Iran from 1964-66.</span></div></span></div><div><p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: small; font-weight: normal;">6:00 PM - BYOB / </span><span style="font-weight: normal;">6:30 PM - Dinner / </span><span style="font-weight: normal;">7:15 PM - Program </span><span style="font-weight: normal;">(approximately)<br /></span><span style="font-weight: normal;"> ~ Menu ~ </span><span style="font-weight: normal;">(includes water & tea) </span><span>Japanese Buffet<br /></span><span>Members = $43</span><span style="font-weight: normal;"> / </span><span style="font-weight: normal;">Guests = $53 / </span><span style="font-weight: normal;">Checks Preferred or Exact Cash<br /></span></p><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"> RSVPs due by 1/13/23 t</span><span style="font-weight: normal;">o Lori Anderson, (via email) </span><span style="font-weight: normal;">waikikilori@yahoo.com</span><span style="font-size: large;

You should either be in the picture or have taken the picture. The deadlines and submission instructions are detailed in the description of the December 7th meeting.

If you would like to give back to the Club, please contact either Lowell at angell@hawaii.edu or myself at carogire@hawaii.rr.com.

As often happens, when we try someplace new there are unexpected issues, which we have addressed with the locations. As a result of feedback from our April meeting at the Hawaii Kai Golf Course, they have purchased a new microphone which should improve the sound quality and we talked to them about substitutions that were made to the menu and have been promised that won’t happen again. We hope you will give them another try, because the facility, the parking and the view are really good! If you need directions, please ask Lowell when you make your reservations.</p><p>At our May meeting, I made a plea for help and several members offered to give programs, a couple offered to take reservations and one member offered to help on the Board. Thank you to everyone who volunteered.</p><p>Lowell Angell and I will soon be seeking members to serve on the Board or as an officer next year since we will have several vacancies. If you are interested, please let us know in the next couple of months.</p><p>Finally, since lots of us are traveling again, I have been asked to restart sharing about our travel experiences. So starting with the July meeting, we will invite members to tell us about their travels in 2-3 minutes, just where you went and a couple of highlights. We want to make it possible for everyone to participate who would like to.</p><p>Generally, we will do this between the introduction of guests and dinner, but it depends on how the dinner service is going, and could be moved to later in the evening.</p><p>Yours in Adventure, Carolyn Gire, Club President</p><p>REMINDERS: </p><p>1.

The result was a trip to see polar bears. The Seal River Heritage Lodge is located on the edge of Hudson Bay in Manitoba, Canada, and is noted for its polar bear (fall/spring) and beluga whale (summer) sightings. Hear about how to safely walk near polar bears and see what it’s like to be in a remote lodge with only 25 other people, including guests and staff.</div></div><div style="text-align: left;"><div> Carolyn and David are both retired and enjoy planning and taking trips around the world.

This time, Dr. Meier will talk about what it took to track and study African forest elephants through the tropical forests of Gabon in western Africa. It is the smallest of the elephant species and is </span><span style="text-align: left;">threatened by habitat loss, fragmentation, and poaching.</span></div></div><div> Dr. Meier grew up in San Diego. Always loving travel, her first Africa centered adventure was moving to Ivory Coast in 2012. Since then she has spent the majority of her time living in West or Central Africa. She received her PhD from Duke University for research on forest elephant social dynamics in Gabon and moved to Hawaii in 2021 to spend time at the University of Hawaii to figure out how we can use satellites to monitor coral reef health around the world.</div></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><div><b>6:00 pm</b> Location Waikiki Yacht Club</div><div><b>6:30 pm</b> Dinner </div><div> Payment by check preferred payable to Adventurers’ Club of Honolulu or Exact cash</div><div><b>7:15 pm</b> (approximately) Program</div><div><b>RSVP</b> Pat Moore, <b><span style="font-size: medium;">honolulupat1@yahoo.com</span></b> or (808) 778-7514</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

font-size: medium;">SPECIAL EVENT FOR SUNDAY, APRIL 3, 2022 </span></u></b></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"> Ca</span>rl and Stacy Evensen, the speakers at our February 2022 meeting, have invited those of you who would like to see their gardens at <b>Maka’alamihi in Kaneohe to join a tour on Sunday, April 3 at 1:30 p.m. </b></p><div>The tour will last about 90 minutes, depending on the number of questions, stops for photographs, and so on. They can accommodate 20 people to ensure that everyone can hear the explanations, ask questions and enjoy their food-centered tropical garden. <br /><br />If we have more than 20 interested Adventurers, a second date can be scheduled. Although this is open to all members, because of the limited space, only guests who attended the February meeting can be included.<br /><br />Please wear closed-toe shoes (think sneakers) since the ground is uneven and can be muddy – slippers, sandals, etc are unsuitable. There are likely to be bugs, so long pants and insect repellent are recommended. If you have any questions, please email Carolyn.</div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjsWhvHvCWPFa3MOy8NG8r82yPN9xaa4T2kMKWwxo1X0wFSC6bgiOutlzohT8RocXtTEV1jmWt-q-Ozw8Io5hlIw5zs_1g2JM094TsjKGvNwAaHkgfh3nW8KcqV2nhInSTZ5cdvnA8HWzcW-UoFnfAgbNASHsv0dtmStwIEQ3KL5xk79m9JAB5hGy3_/s4032/20220403_134640.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

Here are some things to know about each of them:</p><p>April is a new location at the Hawaii Kai Golf Course, which is on the mauka side of Kalanianaole Highway between Kalama Valley and the Makapu’u Lighthouse trail. There is plenty of parking available. Once you turn into the driveway, continue straight ahead until you are in front of the building and the large parking lot. If you need to use the elevator to access our second floor banquet room, after you turn into the driveway, please take the first right turn to a small lot where you can easily access the elevator. We will open the banquet room a little earlier than usual at 5:45 pm so you will have time to admire the ocean views while you enjoy a drink before dinner.</p><p>In May, we are back at the Waikiki Yacht Club, so on Wednesday evening instead of our usual Thursday. We will have a business meeting to review the results from the survey you completed back in January, followed by a slightly shorter than usual presentation by Club member John Patterson. We will be finished at our usual time.</p><p>In June, it’s another new to us location at Natsunoya Tea House on Alewa Heights, I’m sure many of us have been there, although if you’re like me, its been quite a while. This will be a “Bring a Friend” night where the $5 guest fee will be waived.</p><p>I won’t see you at the April meeting, because David and I are taking a transatlantic cruise followed by 10 days in Italy, but I hope you all enjoy our excellent speaker Jeff Tripp and his further adventures in France.</p><p>Carolyn Gire, Club President</p><div style="text-align: left;">^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^<br /><b>ANNOUNCEMENTS</b><br />Our new locations may have specific and varying timelines for food orders.

Located in the Grand Est region of northeastern France, near the border with Germany, its old town has cobblestone streets lined with half-timbered medieval and early Renaissance buildings. The Gothic 13th-century, Eglise Saint-Martin church stands on central Place de la Cathédrale. The city is on the Alsace Wine Route, and local vineyards specialize in Riesling and Gewürztraminer wines.<br /> Colmar is a city with a fascinating past, renowned for its well-preserved old town, its numerous architectural landmarks, and its museums, among which is the Unterlinden Museum, which houses the Isenheim Altarpiece. Although situated in Haut-Rhin department and Grand Est region of north-eastern France, Colmar was German from 1871–1918 and 1940–1945. This presentation will examine the unique history and architectural beauty of Colmar, and will include history and images of the Alsatian Wine Route, considered to be the "capital of Alsatian wine".<br /> Jeff Tripp holds a Ph.D. in American Studies and a master’s degree in Asian Studies from the University of Hawai‘i at Manoa. He is currently a Lecturer in the Department of American Studies at UHM, where he also directs the department’s Graduate Certificate Program in Historic Preservation. He wrote his dissertation on the DMZ in Korea and has presented at the Adventurers Club before.<div> </div><div><div><span style="font-size: large;">5:45 pm</span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b>Hawaii Kai Golf Course</b></span>—8902 Kalanianaʻole Hwy, Honolulu, HI 96825</div><div>Free parking lot on site</div><div><b>Dinner 6:30 pm </b> Menu:</div><div>Payment by check preferred payable to Adventurers’ Club of Honolulu</div><div>1.

Opened in 1852, the Devil's Island system received convicts from the Prison of St-Laurent-du-Maroni, who had been deported from all parts of the Second French Empire. It was notorious both for the staff's harsh treatment of detainees and the tropical climate and diseases that contributed to high mortality. The prison system had a death rate of 75 percent at its worst and was finally closed in 1953.<br /> Devil's Island was also notorious for being used for the internal exile of French political prisoners, with the most famous be-ing Captain Alfred Dreyfus accused of spying for Germany. The Dreyfus Affair was a scandal extending for several years in late 19th-early 20th century France, exposing "anti-Semitism" and corruption in the French military.<br /> John Patterson was raised in Philadelphia, educated in Electrical Engineering at Univ. of New Mexico (BSEE) and Purdue (MSEE), and spent most of his career as a Nuclear Engineer with the government (AEC, ERDA, DOE). Travel has been a part of John's life since his first flight from Philadelphia to Albuquerque for college. His more recent travel experience has been predominantly cruising due to his spouse's health limitations. Two notable cruises were to Cape Town, one from Dubai, the other Miami covering the Atlantic Ocean and Indian Ocean approaches to South Africa. Tonight's program is an excerpt from one of those trips.</div><div style="text-align: left;"> John’s Presentation will be preceded by a short business meeting.<br />---------------------</div><div style="text-align: left;"><div><span style="font-size: large;">6 pm <b>Waikiki Yacht Club</b>—1599 Ala Moana Blvd</span></div><div> Parking is free on site and available nearby at Ala Moana beach park</div><div>No host cocktails (credit cards accepted)</div><div> Dinner 6:30 pm Menu TBD / Program 7:15 pm Approximately</div><div><b>RSVP Contact Info: </b>Lori Anderson, <b>waikikilori@yahoo.com</b> or (541) 913-1063 (email preferred)</div><div>^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^</div></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

It will examine the notion of presence; how it relates to mindfulness, and its implications for the design of built environments beyond the tearoom and Japan.</div><div> Kevin Nute teaches architecture at the University of Hawai'i, Mānoa.

Using their skills and experience, Carl and Stacy use ecological landscaping design methodologies to create garden spaces to demonstrate how to cultivate an urban food forest including native plants and how to manage and consume these food crops. Maka’alamihi Gardens hosts monthly community work days so interested neighbors and friends can assist in the development of the gardens while learning how to grow, manage and eat the garden’s bounty.</div><div> Carl has a PhD in Agronomy and Soil Science and has been a professor in the College of Tropical Agriculture, Associate Dean of CTAHR and the Interim Director of Lyon Arboretum until he retired in 2020. Stacy has a MS in Nutritional Sciences, worked in Government Relations until 2018 and is a credentialed Master Gardener.</div><div><div>Location <b><span style="background-color: #fcff01;">WAIKIKI YACHT CLUB </span> 6PM </b></div><div>Please check the monthly meeting information email that will go out on Feb 1st </div><div>Dinner 6:45 pm </div><div>Program 7:15 pm Approximately</div><div>RSVP <b><span style="font-size: medium;">Lowell Angell, angell@hawaii.edu</span></b> or (808) 988-2098 (email preferred)</div><div>RSVP by: Thursday, February 10, 2022 (Late cancellations and no shows will be billed)</div></div><div> <br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

By 2021 it had the fourth highest per capita income in Africa at $18,000/per capita (purchasing power parity). It also has the highest Human Development Index in continental Sub-Saharan Africa.<p></p><div><span style="color: black;"><div>The author will give his views on how Botswana achieved sustained economic growth with little corruption, while all other African countries failed. He will share personal experiences (both serious and hilarious) with three presidents of Botswana: Harry Oppenheimer, Chairman of DeBeers, and others. He will comment on his African safaris into the most remote parts of the Kalahari and meeting the last of the nomadic San people (Bushman).</div><div> Charles Johnson has a MS in geology from the University of California, Riverside, and a PhD in Minerals Economics from Penn State University. He has undertaken minerals and energy consulting projects in more than three-dozen developing countries. He spent 3 ½ years living in Botswana, where he was the senior economic advisor to the Minister and Permanent Secretary (also became Acting Permanent Secretary) in the Ministry of Mineral Resources and Water Affairs. He was heavily involved in negotiating two major diamond mining agreements, including the Jwaneng diamond mining agreement, the most profitable diamond development in the world. He was on the board of directors of a major diamond company and also a copper-nickel company. In recent years, he has been writing novels. His first, <i>Reunion Promise</i>, was partly set in Africa and diamonds; and his second, <i>Romancing Waikiki </i>contains twenty-one eclectic love stories set in Waikiki.</div><div> Location <b><span style="background-color: #fcff01;">WAIKIKI YACHT CLUB </span> </b> 1599 Ala Moana Blvd by Ala Moana Park</div><div> 6PM no host cocktails (credit cards accepted)</div><div>Please check the monthly meeting information email that will go out on Feb 1st</div><div>Dinner 6:45 pm Menu: Linguine Marinara with Italian Sausage, Onion, Bell Peppers $35</div><div> Vegetable Primavera Marinara Linguine $35</div><div>Program 7:15 pm Approximately</div><div>RSVP <b>Kathy Reinhart,</b> <span style="font-size: medium;"><b>kathyreinhart@hotmail.com</b></span> or (808) 396-8278 (email preferred)</div><div>RSVP by: Thursday, March 10, 2022 (Late cancellations and no shows will be billed)</div><div><br /></div><br /><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

Similarly, our December meeting is usually at Zippy’s on Vineyard, but they have also closed their private room. We have a reservation at the Waikiki Yacht Club instead, but we had to move that one to Wednesday as well, so we will have our Christmas Photo Contest on Wednesday, December 8th.

The spread of high rise apartments, condominiums, hotels, private clubs, and restaurants from Kaimana Beach to Diamond Head Terrace in the 1950s and 1960s arguably filled a post-Statehood need. But the threat that development would overwhelm Diamond Head communities presented the first major confrontation with a new historic preservation consciousness. Come hear about this struggle and the lovely neighborhood at the foot of Diamond Head that contains one of the largest intact clusters of historic homes in Hawai‘i.</span></span></div><h3 style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: times;"> Our speaker, Philip Deters, JD is a volunteer for the Historic Hawaii Foundation.

Evidently, OCC members are all enjoying the reopening of service as well, leading to parking problems and lots of noise. I hope you enjoyed the meeting in spite of these issues, and will join us to hear three interesting programs by our members during the 3rd quarter.</span></b></p><p><b><span style="font-size: medium;"> I have been asked about the possibility of continuing to offer a Zoom option and we are evaluating how to do it, but the biggest problem is access to wi-fi at the venues. We will let you know as soon as we have figured it out. </span></b></p><p><b><span style="font-size: medium;"> Our yak bell came out of hiding for the June meeting and some of you may have wondered about its history. It was gifted to ACH by Harold Chapson, a longtime member on January 10, 1975. He acquired it while trekking in Tibet. This information comes to us courtesy of Bill Arnemann, who was president that year. Another piece of Adventurers' history came from Jack and Eulalia Luckett, who found a snippet about the Club in a Star-Advertiser article by Bob Sigall, a past presenter. He was reminiscing about a long-gone Honolulu sports bar called the Smile Café and mentioned that “the Honolulu Adventurers’ Club was founded there in 1954.

At the March meeting of the Board, when new COVID-19 cases were very low, we were quite excited to discuss how we would resume our normal meetings. As I write this, however, the numbers are climbing again. Regardless, the factors influencing our return to our dinner meetings are the same.</p><p>First, we need to be in Tier 4 at a minimum. Next, our meeting venues need to be ready for us. Right now, none of our usual locations has opened their private dining rooms for groups. Then we must adjust things like the maximum number of people we can accept, the dinner service and make other changes that might be needed. Once all that is done, we also recognize that while some of us are vaccinated and ready to gather, others are not. To accommodate as many members as possible, we are exploring the possibility of offering both in-person and Zoom options for some meetings. Stay tuned for further updates!</p><p>I would also like to thank you for renewing your membership in the Adventurers’ Club of Honolulu. It was wonderful to see how many people continue to be interested in our meetings.</p><p>Mahalo, Carolyn Gire, President</p><p>^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^</p><p>ANNOUNCEMENTS:</p><div style="text-align: left;"> Virtually every non-profit organization has By-Laws that govern the operation of the organization and ACH is no exception. It has been many years since ours were updated, and we are no longer in compliance with the terms and conditions. After talking about it for the last 18 months or so, the Board has finally completed a review and revision, and now it is the role of the full membership to review and approve the new By-Laws. So, in mid-April, all members will receive an emailed copy of the document to read and then we will take a vote to approve them at the May meeting, prior to the program.<br /> Mahalo to Lowell Angell, who led the committee and did much of the work of revising the document, and committee members Bill Arnemann, Carolyn Gire and Judy Simon for their assistance.</div><p>ZOOM MEETINGS</p><div style="text-align: left;"> 1. RSVPs are accepted from the 1st of the month until the Sunday before the meeting. You will receive a confirmation email.<br /> 2. The link to sign on to the meeting is sent on Monday morning, to the email address you used to RSVP. Please check to make sure you have received it and contact Carolyn if you don’t get it via email carogire@hawaii.rr.com.<br /> 3. Guests are welcome to online meetings at no charge, but all guests must be reserved by a member. When you RSVP for your guest, please provide their name and whether they will view with you or separately.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">NEW MEMBERS<br /> Please welcome Ernie Hnatiuk, who has attended quite a few of our meetings, both in person and via Zoom as a guest of Jackie Sprague. Ernie was born in Canada, has lived in Southern California and now lives in Honolulu. He is retired and has travelled extensively in Europe, Central and South America.<br /> We are pleased to welcome back John Patterson who has reactivated his membership in the Adventurers’ Club.</div><p>^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^</p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-lDTFe36p9s4/YGZTBEGr4oI/AAAAAAAAzJ8/kgKn-T2pyQshveZheJ12_cVxE6cNIaYDwCLcBGAsYHQ/image.png" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="171" data-original-width="257" height="78" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-lDTFe36p9s4/YGZTBEGr4oI/AAAAAAAAzJ8/kgKn-T2pyQshveZheJ12_cVxE6cNIaYDwCLcBGAsYHQ/w116-h78/image.png" width="116" /></a></div><b><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="background-color: #f4cccc;">April 15, 2021 (Zoom) - by guest Jeff Tripp</span> <br /></span></b><p></p><p><b><span style="font-size: large;"> “Adventures in Belgium ”</span></b></p><div style="text-align: left;">Belgium is less well-known and less visited (by international tourists) than other European countries. Jeffrey spent a summer session in 2019 at the University of Hawaii’s Study Abroad program in Lille, France, just across the border from Belgium. He had a good opportunity to learn more about Belgian culture and visit many local landmarks. His talk will celebrate the hidden assets of Belgium, highlighting historic Modernist mansions, World War I sites, and the country’s amazing food culture.<br /> Jeffrey Tripp is an Instructor in the Department of American Studies at UHM. He wrote his dissertation on the DMZ in Korea and has presented at the Adventurers Club before.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-VLnCNsOXLGs/YHoY8Yof8lI/AAAAAAAAzPo/E3W7W--BmUEVt92Op_2xma2zU0GawrrNgCLcBGAsYHQ/s1726/20210415_191506.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em;

When </span><a href="https://www.nature.org/en-us/get-involved/how-to-help/places-we-protect/palmyra-atoll/?vu=palmyra" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Nature Conservancy purchased Palmyra</a><span style="color: black;"> in 2000, we knew it was one of the last, wild places worth preserving for its biodiversity and uniqueness – a place we didn’t want to see lost to the pressures of development but rather to be used for pursuing conservation science. In response to a world facing significant questions about how to manage, mitigate and adapt to the impacts of a changed and changing climate, TNC created the Climate Adaptation + Resilience Laboratory (CA+RL) at Palmyra Atoll to refine, amplify and accelerate the application of TNC’s nature-based solutions to challenges and places far beyond Palmyra. Palmyra is delivering on its promise.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><p class="yiv5355622426MsoNormal" style="color: black; text-align: start;"><span style="color: black;"><u></u> </span>On March 18, Kydd Pollock, Fisheries Science Manager at TNC, and Jana Light, Sr. Associate Director of Philanthropy for TNC Hawai‘i, will take us on a virtual tour of one of the most beautiful snorkel spots at Palmyra, North Coral Gardens. On our journey, we’ll see why Palmyra is so special, and get a glimpse of how TNC’s efforts to conserve the whole of Palmyra is encouraging abundance and life in our nearshore areas. We will see why the atoll is and remains a hope spot for a world facing a changing climate, and why people continue to fall in love with Palmyra. We hope you will, too.</p><p class="yiv5355622426MsoNormal" style="color: black; text-align: start;"><span style="color: black;"><u></u> </span>To get an early taste of Palmyra under water, check out <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=esPVs1R6rCQ" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">this video</a>!

Their presentation will feature abundant wildlife, beautiful scenery and a massive tabular iceberg, A68a, which has recently been in the news. Carolyn and David are both retired and like to spend their time planning and taking trips, pandemics permitting. They have visited more than 50 countries, all seven continents and are working on the 50 states. </div><div>We hope to see you via Zoom! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-OibDoBA0_yc/YD2cLk2VleI/AAAAAAAAzBc/g-wrmySyFmA88nItItZjrjpGwHFyvvBbACLcBGAsYHQ/s2048/20210218%2Ba%2BZoom%2BMtg.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

We have had to adjust to on-line meetings, being unable to meet in person, or even to travel much. We have unhappily cancelled long-anticipated trips, chased refunds, rebooked to travel later, and then even later. At the same time, we recognize that there are many people who are worse off than we are.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">Thanks to everyone who submitted pictures for our travel quiz, to Donna Wendt for her help in putting the quiz together, and to everyone who participated. It was just for fun, there were some beautiful pictures and it was interesting to see different parts of the world and realize how many places there are still to visit.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">We will continue to meet via Zoom for the first quarter. I know it isn’t the preference for all our members, but current case counts and test positivity rates restrict event capacity. However, the Club has made reservations from March forward at our usual venues, hoping that having vaccines available will improve the situation sufficiently that we can meet in person sooner rather than later! Please check the reminder email sent on the first of each month for confirmation of the location and reservation instructions.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">Finally, it’s time to send in your 2021 dues. As you will see elsewhere in this newsletter, current members will see a reduced amount due. Your Board considered the reduced expenses of meeting virtually, balanced with the need to keep an adequate reserve in case of pandemic-related increases going forward, and decided on a one-time “loyalty reward” for sticking with us during this time. We hope it will help us keep you.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">Aloha, Carolyn Gire, President</span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;"><b>January 21</b>, Zoom "Pre Covid Trip through Scotland & England" </span><span style="font-size: x-large;"> </span><span style="font-size: x-large;"> </span><span style="font-size: x-large;">by guests, Chloe Chapman & Adam Bradford </span></p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: left; margin-right: 1em; text-align: left;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Uxkg88NkO3k/YAi676oh7qI/AAAAAAAAy6I/mRQIFEMrXv86ptGwaQzFItOS3Kdk6C7kQCLcBGAsYHQ/s603/Adv%2Bclub%2BFeb-Mar%2B2021.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><span style="font-size: large;"><img border="0" data-original-height="101" data-original-width="603" height="80" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Uxkg88NkO3k/YAi676oh7qI/AAAAAAAAy6I/mRQIFEMrXv86ptGwaQzFItOS3Kdk6C7kQCLcBGAsYHQ/w475-h80/Adv%2Bclub%2BFeb-Mar%2B2021.jpg" width="475" /></span></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"></td></tr></tbody></table><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><p><span style="font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;"><b>IT’S DUES RENEWAL TIME!</b></span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">It’s time to renew your Club membership.

Finally, did you know that the identifier that shows on Zoom is the name you use to set up your device? For most of us, it’s our name or something like Carolyn’s iPad. But sometimes it’s something like Tutu’s iPhone or someone else’s name. This makes it difficult for the host to identify you, and in the interests of making our calls secure while admitting our members and guests, please let Carolyn know if you or your guest have a “secret identity”.</span></p><p><b><span style="font-size: large;">BEYOND THE REEF:</span></b></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">Member Don Laird passed away in Honolulu on November 14, age 82.

reached the last quarter of a very unusual year and I thank you for adjusting
to the changes we have had to make. As you can see, your Board of Directors has
moved this quarter’s meetings to Zoom, since it seems quite unlikely we can
meet in person at our usual venues. We would like to acknowledge members Kitty
Austria, Lowell Angell and Stacey Thomas & Michael Dalesandro who had
volunteered as reservationists for the 4th quarter.</span></p>

we hold our elections. In accordance with our bylaws, prior to the October
meeting you will receive the slate of candidates for election as directors and
officers for the coming term. The slate, along with any additional nominations
from the floor, will be voted on by members attending the November meeting. The
new directors and officers will be installed at the December meeting. If you would
like more information or have any questions, please contact me at
carogire@hawaii.rr.com, or our Elections Committee Chair, past-president Lowell
Angell at angell@hawaii.edu or (808) 988-2098.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

for the host to identify you, and in the interests of making our calls secure
while admitting our members and guests, please let Carolyn know if you have a

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Wave Woman is the untold story of an
adventurer whose zest for life and learning kept her alive for ninety-eight
years. Betty Pembroke Heldreich Winstedt was the granddaughter of Mormon
pioneers who, after spending an active and athletic childhood in Salt Lake
City, moved to Santa Monica with her family and enrolled at USC to study dental
hygiene. Betty went on to elope with a man she hardly knew, and to have two daughters.
In middle age, Betty finally followed her dream of living near the ocean; she
moved to Hawaii and, at age forty-one, took up surfing. She lived and surfed at
Waikiki during the golden years of the mid-1950s and was a pioneer surfer at
Makaha Beach. She was competitive in early big-wave surfing championships and
was among the first women to compete in Lima, Peru, where she won first place.
Betty was an Olympic hopeful, a pilot, a mother, a sculptor, a jeweler, a
builder, a fisherwoman, an ATV rider, and a potter who lived life her way,
dealing with adversity and heartache on her own stoic terms. A love letter from
a daughter to her larger-than-life mother, Wave Woman will speak to any woman
searching for self-confidence, fulfillment, and happiness.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Vicky Durand, a longtime member of
the Adventurers Club, first fell in love with Hawaii in the mid-1950's at age
twelve, when she spent a summer with relatives on the island of Molokai.
Returning home, she talked her mother Betty into a Hawaiian trip the following
summer. By the following winter, the adventurous Betty had moved her two young
daughters to Honolulu. Vicky spent her teenage years surfing with her mother.
They competed in the annual Makaha International Surfing Championships.
Together, they were invited to Lima, Peru, to promote women's surfing. Looking
back at Vicky and Betty's evolving relationship, Betty always told Vicky that
every day was an adventure. Never afraid of the difficult challenges ahead,
Betty inspired Vicky to take new challenges<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<span style="font-size: large;">Hello Adventurers!</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> The last few months have been a very different experience for all of us as we have stayed home, lined up six feet apart with our masks on when we do go out, and navigated cancelling trips when we are much more used to making reservations! We have become more comfortable with meetings via Zoom, which has allowed us to continue our ACH meetings, although many of us are looking forward to being together in person.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> We originally planned to have our July meeting at the Outrigger Canoe Club, but they are not yet able to accommodate groups larger than ten, so we have changed to Zoom for July. As Hawaii’s COVID-19 recovery progresses, and because recovery rules change with little notice, our planned meetings may change. Please look for the monthly reminder from Crystal on the first of each month, where we will note any changes, which may be the location but can also be the speaker. Not all our speakers are able to present via Zoom, for a variety of reasons, and COVID-19 has altered our speakers’ schedules as well.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I look forward to seeing you again soon.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Aloha, Carolyn Gire, President</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>CLUB NEWS & REMINDER FOR ONLINE MEETINGS</b></span><br />
The RSVP date for our Zoom meetings is the Sunday before. The link to sign<br />
on to the meeting is sent on the Monday morning, to the email address you<br />
used to RSVP. Please check to make sure you have received it and contact<br />
Carolyn if you don’t get it via email at carogire@hawaii.rr.com.<br />
Guests are welcome to online meetings at no charge. After the June meeting,<br />
where members RSVP’d for 12 guests, we are making a small change in<br />
procedure. The guests’ names are needed whether they will watch with you,<br />
or link in separately. If the latter, I need their emails, but I will ask you to pass<br />
on the link to them.<br />
Finally, did you know that the identifier that shows on Zoom is the name you<br />
use to set up your device? For most of us, it’s our name or something like<br />
Carolyn’s iPad. But sometimes it’s something like Tutu’s iPhone or someone<br />
else’s name. This makes it difficult for the host to identify you, and in the<br />
interests of making our calls secure while admitting our members and guests,<br />
please let Carolyn know if you have a “secret identity”. Mahalo!<span style="font-size: medium;"></span><br />
<br />

<b><span style="background-color: yellow; font-size: large;">July 16, 2020 (Zoom) - by member Jim Harwood</span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="background-color: yellow; font-size: large;">Mauna Kea: Early Planning and Development</span></b></div>
Astronomer Jim Harwood will talk about the early years of astronomy on Mauna Kea and Haleakala, as part of the UH Institute for Astronomy. As Jim explains, the talk will cover “How astronomy started on Mauna Kea, and the experiences of those who observed in primitive and dangerous conditions far away from any human contact night after night during 1965-1967 to determine the best site on the mountain for a major telescope, NASA's proposed 88" reflector, then the 6th largest in the world.”<br />
Jim was an optical instrumentation engineer at the time of that project, is now retired as the former computer systems engineer for telescope control at the UH Institute for Astronomy. He holds a BA in physics from Columbia University. Before his work supervising the operations of the Mauna Kea Site Evaluation program, he was the optical instrumentation engineer for a shipboard program sponsored by the Advanced Research Projects Agency (US Defense Dept.) studying re-entries of ballistic missiles launched on the Atlantic Missile Range, 1958-1964. The program took place on a converted Liberty Ship, outfitted with radars and instrumentation mounts. The ship participated in the<br />
atomic tests at Johnston Island in 1962, working out of Honolulu that year. That Honolulu experience motivated Jim to return to Hawaii when the ARPA shipboard project ended in 1964.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="background-color: #93c47d; font-size: large;">Biogeography and Climate Change</span></b></div>
UHM Associate Professor, Dr. Beilman , will discuss decades of work as a geographer & environmental scientist, covering his fieldwork in Russia, the Canadian Arctic, and Antarctica. As Dr. Beilman explains: “The Antarctic Peninsula is one of the Earth’s fastest warming regions and is experiencing rapid ecological change. During a fiveweek research cruise in March 2020, he visited sites along four hundred kilometers of the western Peninsula studying plants and soils. He will describe his work using a drone to observe the continent’s surface & discuss the implications for changes in the Southern Ocean, marine ecosystems & plant growth on land.”<br />
Dr Beilman holds a PhD from UCLA, a MSc from the University of Alberta in Canada, followed by post-doctoral study at Queen’s University in Belfast, UK. He was born & raised in western Canada & spent his early days “appreciating the serene northern forests & majestic Rocky Mountains of western North America.” His PhD dissertation was on carbon hotspots in West Siberia, Russia.<br />

Here is the information for our meeting on Thursday, July 16. We will start the meeting at 7:00 pm and I will start admitting members from the waiting room a few minutes before that. Please identify the icons for muting your audio (a little microphone) and video (a little movie camera) so that when we are ready to start, you can do so. Leaving your audio on means we can hear all kinds of background noise. Too many open videos, which allow others to see what you are doing, can slow down the meeting.<br />

If you haven’t used your zoom account in a while, or this is your first use, please start the sign in process earlier since it may need to be updated.
