Kaua’i Historical Society Fundraiser

A fundraiser for Kaua’i Historical Society May 18 at Kaua’i Beach Resort offered a taste of the Garden Isle as it was in the ’40s and ’50s. Event proceeds support the society’s efforts to collect, preserve and disseminate the oral and written history of Kaua’i and Ni’ihau. Live entertainment included jazz songs by Melveen Leed and storytelling by authors Hobey Goodale and Mike Ashman, who both have published books about life on old Kaua’i. A silent auction featured estate items and antiques, jewelry, vintage books and art. For more information, call the Historical Society at 245-3373 or email director@kauaihistoricalsociety.org.
