classroom daily, regardless of time of drop-off or pick-up.

parking brake, and turn the front wheels to the curb or side of the road. Do not leave any child under 10 years of

age in a parked vehicle without proper supervision. Do not leave any vehicle occupied solely by a person who

cannot readily exit in the case of an emergency. PMO will be contacted and tickets will be issued. (Base Order

Kamehameha the Great, also known as Kamehameha I and Kamehameha the First, was ruler of Hawaii from

1782 until his death on May 8, 1819. He is remembered for uniting Hawaii, introducing laws to uphold human rights

in combat situations, and for being a fair and stable leader. His name means "lonely" or "loneliness" and he is some-

times known as the "Napoleon of the Pacific". In 1871, the great-grandson of Kamehameha the Great, known as

Kamehameha V, passed a royal decree that Kamehameha Day should be celebrated. The day was first observed on

June 11, 1872, and was one of the first holidays proclaimed by the Hawaii State Legislature after Hawaii became a

US state in 1959.

Today, Kamehameha Day is treated with elaborate events harkening back to ancient Hawaiʻi, respecting the

cultural traditions that Kamehameha defended as his society was slowly shifting towards European trends. The King

Kamehameha Hula Competition attracts hula groups from all over the world to the Neil S. Blaisdell Center for the

two-day event.
