New Year

Aloha! Welcome to a new year! You may have noticed that we are switching things up a bit over here and we will be moving to a bi-monthly newsletter format. We will be announcing events for the next two months via the newsletter but you can still find our updated calendar of events on our web page, with events posted through June 2022. You can also follow us on social media for special event announcements, community news, and daily updates from the field. Hau'oli Makahiki Hou!

In June, HOK announced an exciting travel & work opportunity for our Outreach Coordinator, Sanna, to join the Hawaiian Monk Seal Research Program on a journey to the North Western Hawaiian Islands (NWHI) in the Papahānaumokuākea Marine National Monuments. Sanna spent the month of June training with the program and deployed in mid-July to Lisianski Island, also known by its Hawaiian name Papa‘āpoho. She spent her days with just two other team members, walking the shores of the 384 acre island, counting monk seals and assessing their health. Join us as Sanna shares stories and photos from her journey! If you want to read more about the Hawaiian Monk Seals and opportunities to join similar opportunities in the NWHI click here.
