Hi All,
You guys were really good on part one of the quiz. (You blew the Windward Rotary Club away!)
So...here's part two.
11. A group of South Pacific students began performing traditional songs and dances in Waikiki in 1959 at the International Market Place. They moved to Kaiser’s Hawaiian Village Hotel, and by 1961 they were performing to sold-out crowds at the Waikiki Shell. The tourists loved them. What was their name then and now?
12. Restaurateur Andy (Andy’s Drive In) Wong named restaurants for his two sons and wife. Name one.
13. What occupies the former site of the Lords of Lanikai restaurant?
14. In September 1974, Brigham Young University Hawaii opened as a junior college in temporary facilities with 153 students and 20 faculty. What was its original name?
15. This top secret facility was built in 1942 to transmit radio signals to the Navy ships that were then operating throughout the Pacific. What was its name then and what is it called now?
16. What is the oldest school (still) on the windward side? It opened in 1863.
17. This was built in 1916 to bring water to the Ewa plain. On an average day, it transferred about 30 million gallons a day to sugar plantations.
18. A food buyer at this company with two windward stores invented the tea bag and popularized the baked potato in the U.S.
19. Al Lolotai graduated from this school and became the first non-white to play professional football. He played for the Washington Redskins in 1945. Initially, the school’s football team was called the “Red and White.” In the 1940s, they were called the “Ramblers.” After receiving secondhand uniforms from Iolani School in the 1950s, they settled on which name?
20. The Turtle Bay Resort was built by Del Webb in 1973.
What was its original name and what did it mean?
