LEADERSHIP: IT'S NOT ABOUT REWARDS; IT'S DOING WHAT IS RIGHT EVEN IF NO ONE ELSE ACKNOWLEDGES YOU!

2022 MOANALUA HIGH SCHOOL LEADERSHIP CONFERENCE (above) The Moanalua High School Executive Council is made up of fifteen volunteers. VOLUNTEERS! While officers are elected, they choose to run knowing that if they win, there is no physical reward, no letter grade, no incentive other than the pure satisfaction of doing a good job and representing the student body. At times, we achieve great success while at other times, we achieve somewhat less, but it is always a learning process. While we can take away much satisfaction from doing a good job, we can also learn from mistakes and try to better ourselves the next time. And so, at the end of our terms, while we do not earn a credit, a letter grade or even a certificate of achievement proving our accomplishments, we can take away the self-satisfaction in knowing that we did our best for the students, school and community, and that positive experience is something we can really use as contributing adult members of society.

11/24 - XTERRA RUN IS "HEAVENLY!"

Getting ready to work!

Fill those cups quickly!

It was a total team effort!

Not all the runners needed water, but we were ready!

Most of the slower pack did stop for refreshments!
 
"Heaven!"
As one runner put it when he passed our water station, he said he needed to take a picture of "heaven."  Our latest project was manning a water station at the annual XTerra Run on the windward side at Kualoa Ranch.  It was certainly a beautiful day and the scenery did match.  We enjoyed cheering on the runners and providing some aid to them.  And, we also got some great training in how to fill up cups of water and Gatorade really FAST!
