Moanalua High School Student Association: 10/27: GREAT PUMPKINS!

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.

10/27: GREAT PUMPKINS!

Well, the Great Pumpkin never showed up, but 12 SA officers came out to help at the Aloun Farms Pumpkin Patch to assist the Hawaii Foodbank's collection booth and Hay Ride. It is amazing how this event has grown from a simple pumpkin field in the middle of Kunia to an all-out family event with food and game booths, a country store, carnival rides, games and other vendors. And yes, the popular hay ride is still there! Helping out on the last weekend before Halloween, we knew it might be busy, so we started early at 8:00 and by the time we finished at 1:00, there were literally hundreds of cars and people. Hope everyone has a Happy Halloween!
