December 31, Hapuna Beach Cabins. Reason: To be at the only place in the island with public fireworks displays on NY’s eve. GREAT sunset shots on Hapuna Beach if there are no low-lying clouds.
A-frame cabins have common bathrooms with hot water showers; 1 large mess room with full kitchen (fridge, stove, oven & some pots/pans). Pot-luck dinner and breakfast.
As with any camp out, bring games, snacks or anything for the long wait to midnight when fireworks are set off at 3 different places: Mauna Kea, King’s Shops and Hapuna Resort. Bring air mattress or sleeping bag (cabins have a bench) and flash light. Bring tripod, remote shutter release, camera manual (for those who don’t know how to put their camera in bulb setting) extra battery & different color glow sticks for those who went to Ben Willmore’s seminar and want to play with Willmore’s version of light painting.
Call/email Joy (at hilojoy “AT” hotmail.com) if interested, there is a $20 fee for the cabin (I think there is one remaining) or prorata share of $20 fee for space in cabins already reserved by other members.
