NEW - Pearl Harbor Tour Newsletter
Aloha again!
Well, I only thought I'd sent the last newsletter! I just received this information request from Historic Programs so you'd be sure to see and read it.
COMPLETE ASAP!!
Please send the following link to your group members: https://www.pearlharb
This is for ALL participants and guests attending as part of our group. Make sure everyone in your group has this information. Official event venues do require vaccine cards or proof of a negative test to enter the premises. In order to expedite the check-in process, we have created a simple tool (see above link) for your group members to upload their vaccine cards and negative tests. Please note that these cards will be kept in private and the file will be deleted immediately following the event.
I am asking that you do this as soon as possible so you don't have to worry and they will have the info. With the tour company having a master list, we will be able to pass easier and more quickly through the various venues. We don't want our group to slow the wheels of progress! Thanks so much for your assistance.
Please contact me or another member of the committee if you have further questions or concerns.

NEW - Pearl Harbor Tour Newsletter - Contains totally new information! Be sure to read everything!
Aloha ladies,
Well, this is IT! The last of the newsletters (I think!!) before we actually hit the road (okay, ocean) for Honolulu. After almost two years of preparation, the dream of performing our tribute concert in front of the USS Missouri in Pearl Harbor is about to come true! I hope you're as excited as the committee members to be included in the 80th commemoration. It's very important that you read ALL of the newsletter for the current information that we have recently received.
Monday - Tour day
Tuesday - Pearl Harbor Parade and Picnic
Wednesday - Pearl Harbor - USS Missuri concert
Thursday - Travel day
Dede, Maxine and I are so excited about this amazing opportunity to perform at Pearl Harbor during the historic 80th commemoration and having YOU as a part of our group. (Note: There’s a good chance that it will be the last opportunity to actually have any of the survivors in attendance.) Thank you in advance for all of the hard work you've put in to make this dream a reality.
Please contact me or another member of the committee if you have further questions or concerns.
