~~Question: I remember back in the early days my mother working with the Women’s Garden Club, which promoted the King Kamehameha tourist signs. Why doesn’t someone start up a plaque system, found here on the mainland at battlegrounds, etc.? It would be great for tourists and locals alike to know the areas they visit. We need to teach the young about their past.
Answer: It’s unlikely that a plaque system will be undertaken any time soon, considering the funding that would be required and red tape that likely would be involved.
