As part of our 50th anniversary of statehood, we want you to select your top 50 athletes or teams who made a difference in Hawaii SINCE statehood. The sportsperson doesn't have to have been born here or be an athlete at all, but just someone who changed the landscape in Hawaii sports, made Hawaii proud or provided great theatre and memories.

The Advertiser wants your memories of Hawai'i's admission into statehood. We will publish a selection of personal accounts in the newspaper and online. Your reflections could include:
• Memories of events leading to statehood or of Admission Day itself. • What statehood has meant to you or your family. • How Hawai'i has benefited — or suffered — under statehood during the past 50 years. • What you miss about Hawai'i from around the time the state entered the union. We are seeking articles of about 500 words or brief vignettes of fewer than 100 words. Articles of other lengths will also be considered. We also welcome photographs that include descriptive information about the photo and when and where it was taken. Send all contributions to 50th@honoluluadvertiser.com. Include your name and a contact phone number or numbers. Only e-mail contributions are being accepted. |
