Children's Day Camp

Established in 1995 on Oahu for the Hawaii Okinawa Center, by CDC Advisor Karen Kuba-Hori, the program has grown to include similar camps on Kauai, Hawaii and Maui. Children statewide will have the opportunity to participate in this program. The neighbor island programs are supported in part by the State Foundation on Culture and the Arts.
