Got a possible candidate that seems to satisfy criteria we're looking for: it's Puna-based, involves children, and also promotes a strong anti-drug/anti-tobacco message. I stumbled onto it the other day while researching possible activities that my 15-year old might enjoy in Puna (he loves gymnastics). A new acquaintance who lives in HPP highly recommended I contact Graham Ellis at "Hiccup Circus". Just checked out their website and sent an email to Graham to see if they had any programs going on in the summer that we could observe. He emailed back today saying they're down for the summer but we decided to hook up in early August anyway to talk story. He also attached an article which I'll have to open on my Mac since some mysterious bug in my PC is preventing me from opening pdf files. I'll be happy to forward to Pam if she's interested.
Anyway, check out their site and tell me what you think. If it looks promising, perhaps someone living in Puna can sniff around and get more info. They look legit to me but it's something we need to build consensus on. Here's the address: http://hiccupcircus.com/index.htm
Look forward to hearing your thoughts.
Aloha!
