Off the news: Learn more about Honouliuli historic site

It’s been a relatively quiet 10 years since the Honouliuli National Historic Site was established on Feb. 24, 2015 — but now, it’s time to tout the significance of this WWII POW and incarceration camp. Two events this month will launch a year’s worth of events:

>> At 10 a.m. March 27, a panel will share the story of how Honouliuli became a national park, as well as site updates, at the Japanese Cultural Center of Hawaii.

>> At 3 p.m. March 30, two archaeologists for Japanese-American confinement sites in Hawaii will discuss their archaeological excavations at Honouliuli and other locales. The link for this virtual event will be on www.nps.gov/hono Opens in a new tab.
