• Oahu Clubs: We have three officer spots for each club to attend the daytime events (8:00 am to 9:45 pm), and two officer spots per club to overnight with us. We ask that the officers commit to the full three days and two nights.

• Neighbor Island Clubs: We have three officer spots for each club! We provide your flight, transportation and accommodations on Oahu for the full three-day summit!

 

Who can attend Day 2 "Hawaiʻi Youth Summit"? 

You can invite other officers and/or club members to the Hawaii Youth Summit, hosted by the East-West Center. However, HYS is seeking to engage new students from your schools and schools across the state, so we ask PAAC Clubs to limit themselves to 5 members total to attend the HYS one-day event. These five would include the 2-3 officers already attending the 3-day training. See this matrix for clarity on who attends what and what you need to complete to be fully registered. This event is limited to 100 seats so reserve those seats ASAP.
