Aloha brothers and sisters,

We hope that you and your 'ohana are safe from this horrible weather we have right now. Due to the flood watch that at the time of this post, goes through Monday afternoon as well as the high wind warning that goes until 6 PM on Monday, our office will be closed tomorrow, Monday, February 9, 2026. The safety of our members first most, staff, as well as those who have business at our building are of utmost importance and the unsafe conditions are not suitable for our office to open as usual. Please stay turned to local news for weather updates. We are scheduled to resume business as usual on Tuesday, and will keep you posted here if anything changes. Mālama pono!
