MM - Test Map

Description: Nisei Veterans Memorial Center 665 Kahului Beach Rd. Kahului, Hawaii Access: Mon-Fri, 12pm-4pm The Nisei Veterans Memorial Center was incorporated as a nonprofit corporation with the goal of building a lasting tribute to the Japanese-American veterans of World War II. It began when Leonard Oka, whose father Clarence “Hekka” Oka was a veteran of the 442nd, founded Maui’s Sons and Daughters of the 442nd, the first such organization in the nation. It later became the Maui Sons and Daughters of the Nisei Veterans. Under Leonard Oka’s leadership, the NVMC was envisioned to be the responsible receptacle and caretaker of the history, memorabilia and artifacts of Nisei veterans. Over time, a wider vision developed to encourage a larger community impact by building a “living memorial,” the NVMC campus. The gift of two acres of land from Maui Sons and Daughters of Nisei Veterans to NVMC set the stage for 20 years of facility development. https://www.nvmc.org Made in America: One of the best shrimp trucks in Hawaii, Geste Shrimp, is located three miles south of here near Costco (another Hawaii must-visit!). https://gesteshrimp.com Instructions: Take a photo similar to the one attached, with rider flag and motorcycle.
