Is there any sound more pleasant than a
child’s laughter? Definitely! It is the sound
of our SHRM Aloha members singing to their
heart’s content and having a great time!The members had a wonderful time
showing off their talented vocals, socializing
with one another, listening to each other’s
karaoke favorites, and enjoying the pizza,
(particularly Maggie Hinshaw, seen proudly
displaying her pizza.) Alex (Alejandro)
Baclaan stated that he “had a great time
with some of the most amazing people!” He
especially found it memorable when
everyone was singing “Alejandro” by Lady
Gaga to him. “I used to hate that song, but
now I like it!” exclaimed Alex.

“Work all day, work it all night.” The SHRM XXL
Aloha Chapter did exactly that during their
Magic Mike dance performance! Although
weather conditions were not ideal, we still had
a great bonding experience and had lots of fun!
The purpose of Super Clubs Day is to bring all
the Shidler clubs together and initiate some
friendly competition. By playing as a team, this
helps bring the club even closer. Even throughthe rain, our members continued to cheer on
the sidelines for our volleyball and football
teams. It was difficult to maintain enthusiasm
when we were not winning or when it started
pouring rain. However, this did not stop our
members from continuously encouraging one
another. Therefore, out of all of the Shidler
clubs, the SHRM Aloha Chapter truly becamecloser together and that makes SHRM the
winner of Super Clubs Day.
