A special thanks goes out to the many First Hawaiian Bank's Troy Barboza Law Enforcement Torch Runners who ran or walked the 2 1/2 mile route to start our day's events! Some of the participants represented Hawaii County Police Department, First Hawaiian Bank, Keaau High School Football Team, Hawaii Air National Guard, Hawaii Army National Guard, community runners and so many individuals who made our athletes feel so special as you supported their efforts! Thank you to Officers Jason Grouns, Matt Kaaihue and Lt. Darren Horio for their help to organize the Torch Run and to promote the sale of our Torch Run shirts, which greatly benefits our program here.
Mahalo everyone!
