Editor's Note January 2022
Aloha Community!
It is my pleasure to introduce the first issue of our Kaupō Community Newsletter—Pō‘ai Pili! Pō‘ai is a circle or also a group of friends; pili means to be close or connected. The name for this newsletter remembers our kūpuna and their stories of Kaupō—good times, close friends, and a community that felt like ‘ohana.

Here you will find updates on community initiatives and events, messages from service providers, stories about Kaupō’s history and culture, and much more! The purpose of this newsletter is to bring the community together and keep us all informed.
Pō‘ai Pili will be distributed quarterly (Jan, Apr, Jul, Oct) in both digital and paper copies. Each issue will be packed with information, announcements and Aloha.
Enjoy!
