Amelia Earhart

     Since July 3rd was the 75th anniversary for the disappearance of Amelia Earhart, various activities and events were held in the United States. An expedition set out from Hawaii to continue the search for answers to the mystery surrounding Amelia Earhart’s disappearance.
     Our GM Alex, who has lived in Hawaii for 35 years, never knew about Amelia Earhart’s connection with the state of Hawaii, until he went back in August.  While in  Hawaii, Alex found proof of Amelia Earhart’s Hawaiian connection overlooking Diamond Head beach.  There attached to a boulder is a plaque commemorating Amelia Earhart’s historic solo flight from Hawaii to Oakland California. 
     While people around the world know of Lindbergh’s solo flight across the Atlantic Ocean, Amelia Earhart’s solo flight is largely forgotten, except for this lone plaque.  Though we may have forgotten her achievement, people  in America must recognize that Amelia Earhart spurred equality for women in America by doing something she loved, flying.
     So if your ever in Hawaii, and go to Diamond Head, enjoy the observatory, beach, and the wind surfing, but look around and you will see Amelia Earhart’s Plaque.
