28th Cavalcade of Stars
by Lion Jack Schweigert, Esq.
The annual Cavalcade of Stars is the Lions Club of Honolulu's signature community-service project. Each year in September for the past three decades the Club rents a large venue; engages a list of notable local entertainers; busses in the blind, the elderly, at-risk kids, and others; and gives them a really great show.
Cavalcade 28 was held September 10 at McKinley High School in Downtown Honolulu and was a model of good family entertainment.
Legendary Hawaiian singer-composer Jon Osorio sang his best-known songs; magician Michael Ching did some of his best magic tricks; Pierre Grill, along with his 11-year-old prodigy singer and 78- year-old banjo player wowed us with his one-man band stagemanship; Wanda Koyada brought Cherish the Dog, who was as endearing as his name and so talented as to be even able to say prayers before bed and tuck himself in; the Hypersquad, a contemporary modern dance group composed of kids, kept us in awe of how children can be so talented; and the frosting on the cake was the stellar performance by Hawaii's own comedian, Frank Delima, who once again acted as our emcee.
As to statistics, this year we bussed in over 300 people from senior citizen clubs and disabled healthcare centers and altogether entertained over 1,000 people. Based on this year's success we are looking forward to next year's Cavalcade 29.

DG Roy Nishida and PDG Bernard Ho along with Wisdom Factors International,
represented by Lt Gen Hank Stackpole, USMC (ret), hosted Honolulu Mayor Lion
Mufi Hannemann and other business and civic leaders at a reception and book
signing on November 2 at Sub-Wolf-Zero in Honolulu, featuring Wising Up -
A Youth Guide to Good Living. The book, co-authored by Lions
Reynold Feldman and M Jan Rumi, offers practical advice for gaining wisdom
in a way accessible to young people.
The mayor praised the book for providing
answers that young people can understand and use in their every day lives.
He congratulated the Lions for promoting and offering it during the 2005
fundraiser. For each $15.00 book sold, the Foundation receives $7.50!
You can obtain your copy of Wising Up: A Youth Guide to Good Living by contacting either Lion Reynold Feldman or Jan Rumi, or online at www.wisingup.com. Lions Reynold and Jan will happily autograph them for you. The books are the perfect holiday gift and benefit Lions, too!
