Aloha Classmates! — I hope you are all well and enjoying your summer. Once again, Kamehameha is sponsoring a Relay for Life fundraiser for the American Cancer Society. It will be held at Konia Field on the Kapalama campus from 6 p.m. Saturday August 18th to 6 a.m. Sunday August 19th. This year will be a milestone of sorts for Kamehameha.
