I had a good night taking photos at the 4th Annual Small Business Hawaii Education Foundation Awards dinner last Friday night, September 16. The annual event is a gathering of business leaders, mainly in the area of small business to honor several of their own people. This year Joe Nicolai of JN Services was named Small Business Person of the Year. Others so honored included Win Schoneman, owner of Bubbies Homemade Ice Cream & Desserts in Hawaii Kai, Tyler Roukema, owner of the Outback Steakhouse also in Hawaii Kai, Jim Dooley of HawaiiReporter.com, and 4 others. A complete list of the honorees is posted at the Smart Business Hawaii website. I shot about 700 photos that night of which about 60 have been published. They are viewable by clicking the slide show above and also on my Flickr website as well as on SBH. Selected photos are shown below.
