In addition to service in Honolulu, similar events will take place in Hilo, California, South Dakota, Illinois, Minnesota, Michigan and as far away as Iraq.
Oct. 16 is a significant date in the Kamehameha Schools' history as it marks the 120th anniversary of Bernice Pauahi Bishop's passing and the service seeks guidance on a pono decision from the 9th Circuit.
