Click on a red link below to add an anniversary. When creating a new page, it is best practice to use the existing formatting template to ensure uniformity. The syntax is as follows:

{{subst:Portal:Hawaii/Selected anniversaries/Template
 |year=year of event
 |description=description of event with links
}}

Subsequent events that took place on the same day should be added by editing the resulting page directly.
