MELE KALIKIMAKA!
Keiki Kalikimaka
Thanks to all the youngsters who submitted ornaments to trim our pages for the holidays. Shown here are all the finalists -- they've decorated the paper since Dec. 1. This year's winning ornament, topping our Keiki Kalikimaka tree, was made by Kayla Vainerere, 10, a student at Kahuku Elementary. Kayla wins $100 and 10 movie tickets. Congratulations, Kayla!
