January: It’s About Time.

-In the Spirit of the Seasons, AAF-Hawaii is offering Special Rates on our Memberships.
-Special Savings Offer!


January. A time to turn the page on a year of trials. A time for rejuvenation, rekindling, renewal; the last one being the most important, as it’s time to renew your membership to AAF-Hawaii.

It’s past due, actually. We usually go through this exercise in July, but hey, with the kind of year ’09 was, can you blame us for being a little late?

Besides a full-on grappling match with, you know, the recession, we still presented Mark Carlson, Senior Creative Director from McDonalds in July, followed in the very next month by a rousing, action-packed TV Fall Preview so spirited that we had local station GMs dumping water into the laps of their competitors! The waterlogged August event also featured a invigorating Media Workshop Luncheon with Mark Berman of MediaWeek. Throw in David Jenkins, co-creator of Nike’s “Just Do It” campaign, and I’m sure you’ll forgive us for not putting the arm on you until now.

And so here’s the deal: Join NOW, pay NOW and take up to 50% off corporate rate and over 40% off the individual rate!

It’s a heckuva deal, and let’s not forget that by joining now –and we mean RIGHT NOW, you can save big bucks on every single one of your Pele entries! Don’t hesitate!

Membership will give you specially discounted front row seats for all events in our 2010 Calendar! See below for more info.
