I had the chance to attend HVCB’s annual membership meeting last week at the Royal Hawaiian Hotel, which covered market updates, the new “Hawaiʻi Stays With You” campaign, and changes to the HVCB management structure. It was a solid, informative session and, as always, great to reconnect with industry friends old and new.
A special and well-earned mahalo was given to Sue Kanoho, who is retiring after 29 years as Managing Director of Island Chapters and Executive Director of the Kauaʻi Visitors Bureau. Sue was sent off in style with a Proclamation from Governor Green and heartfelt words recognizing her lasting impact on Kauaʻi and Hawaiʻi’s visitor industry.
Mahalo nui loa, Sue, for all you have done for Kauaʻi and Hawaiʻi’s visitor industry. Wishing you all the best in your next chapter.
