A big mahalo to our awesome Hawaii Island IEI teachers for participating in our workshop. We look forward to hearing about your implementation of the curriculum . Also, thank you to our guest speakers Michael Kaleikini, Kelly King, and Jenna Long. Your presentations were highly informational and relevant to the energy issues of the state and Hawaii Island. What a great weekend!

We  had such a great time this past weekend running the IEI workshop on Kauai! Mahalo to our enthusiastic participants and knowledgeable presenters Bob Conti and Gregg Matsuo.
