Congratulations to Waimea football coach Kyle Linoz on the honor of having daughter Kyrie Linoz be selected as the Menehune homecoming queen. When was the last time a football coach had to skip halftime to escort his daughter?

State Department of Education Kaua‘i Complex Area Superintendent Paul Zina also had escort duty when his daughter Haley Zina (couldn’t recognize them out of volleyball uniform) was selected as a member of the Menehune homecoming court.
Now, who is the homecoming royalty for Kaua‘i High School, which plays this Saturday in a single game starting at 2:30 p.m. at Vidinha Stadium in Lihu‘e?
Farmer Risa Clemmons is getting excited because kumu Leina‘ala Pavao Jardin and her Halau Ka Lei Mokihana O Leina‘ala are scheduled to appear at the big Thursday all-day Aloha Market at the National Tropical Botanical Garden South Shore Visitor Center in Kukui‘ula. Risa said she’ll be there with some of her Thai food offerings at the big holiday edition of the market that starts at 10 a.m. and closes when the sun goes down. How about a recipe (for something other than what is sold at the markets) for the Pau Hana Market Holiday Recipe Contest that is being presented by the Kaua‘i County Farm Bureau, Corteva Agriscience, Kaua‘i Grown and KGC?
