2011 National Veteran's Golden Games

the arrival of veterans at Hickam Malama Golf Course
The National Veterans Golden Age Games was held here in Honolulu for the first time. The events lined up this year was golf, swimming, shuffleboard, billiards and a host of other games. There were approximately 900 veterans attending along with their family members.
The weather was at it's best for all of the events including the luau, which was hels at the Hale Koa Hotel. It was about the scores but it seemed to me that the veterans as well as their family members were totally into the aloha spirit and definitely the weather.
I enjoyed shooting for the vets, they were a delightful group of men that seemed to enjoy all that Hawaii had to offer. It was amazing to see that the Veteran's Administration had sponsored all this for the members. It was my honor to spend the time with these men and women, I salute you all......Aloha.
