Reading from left to right as they are introduced to the House of Delegates are these four members of the Na Opio O Emmalani, Austin Makaio, Cisco Valeho, Leinaala Fisher and Kalei Fisher. This group was on a tour of Kauai having raised funds for the trip through various projects. Pearl Harbor also has Na Opio members in its club but they attend meetings as regular club members so they eventually will work their way into the active membership, giving the club an infusion of new blood.
