Explore the ambiance and activities of this back-to-nature destination and discover a truly unique Hawaiian experience. 4000 ft above the sea, giant tree ferns, lofty ohi'a-lehua trees and fragrant ginger create a lush refreshing appeal in contrast to the primal volcanic land. Temperatures are cooler than are typical of Hawaiian coastal areas. Rainfall is a natural part of the native rainforest with misty rains alternating with clear skies. Hike, bike or drive the CRATER RIM DRIVE in Volcanoes National Park. Be invigorated by its craters, steam vents, lava tubes, and rainforest trails. For the adventurous, the Chain of Craters Road winds down to the coast where vast systems of lava tubes carry active lava flows into the sea, creating the newest land on earth. Another exceptional experience while in the National Park is a visit to the VOLCANO ART CENTER GALLERY , with its collection of fine arts and crafts, available for purchase and displayed in the original historic Volcano House on the edge of Kilauea Caldera. The Volcano Art Center is currently developing an arts and environmental campus on 7 acres of land in Volcano Village. This new facility will expand its already well-established and ongoing programs in visual, literary, and performing arts. These include an acclaimed hula and Hawaiian music series which garnered a prestigious Kihili Award from the Hawaii Visitors and Convention Bureau. The outlying community is a mix of scientists, artists and local entrepreneurs in a village-like town with a variety of restaurants and cafes. The village and its surrounding inhabitants blend almost imperceptibly into the native-forested landscape. The whole area has been designated by the United Nations as an INTERNATIONAL BIOSPHERE RESERVE AND HISTORIC SITE. Volcano is a destination in which to relax as well as be active, a place to be awed and slow down, to get in touch with oneself beyond the often busy pace of daily life. Surreal and serene, it is a place which is empowering, enduring and ever-changing. The harmony of man and nature here attracts aware and sensitive individuals whose values show concern for the earth and its remaining places of great natural beauty. "Perhaps this village of 3,600 (inhabitants) can show us how to better tend the land and each other as we move into the new millennium." HONOLULU STAR BULLETIN DAY TRIPS FROM VOLCANO PUNA Experience old Hawaii along the old road on the PUNA COAST with its papaya farms, hot pools, black sands beach and newly-created land - 1-hour drive each way.

The multiple colors and often intense graphics of these garments can often obscure subtle logos. One way to completely sidestep such a hurdle is by commissioning a custom pattern and incorporating the message or logo(s) into the design. Instead of, say, a repeating pattern or palm trees and parrots, why not a pattern of palm trees, parrots and the client's product or logo? While it often requires an order of at least 1,500 shirts, many suppliers do custom Hawaiian patterns designed for their corporate clients. Superior Uniform Group recently did a series of custom shirts for Hawaii Bus Lines that incorporated a bus into a bright floral pattern; Scorpio Apparel has designed prints for both Captain Morgan's Rum and Coors Brewing Company. Custom patterns allow companies yet another avenue for brand enhancement and extension, says Superior's Spies, and a brightly-colored, hard-to-forget avenue at that. "They're the up-and-coming thing, I believe," he beams. These same suppliers who do custom patterns are well aware that the majority of their stock shirts will be embellished, so the stock designs often leave a relatively "quiet space" around the left chest, where an embroidered logo would typically be placed. Fast Lane Clothing Company's Lori Davis suggests a stark contrast between the color of embroidery and the color of a shirt's pattern. That will help the logo stand out on an already loud shirt. While embroidering a sleeve or left chest is a fairly simple task, a pocket usually proves less accessible. To avoid construction-related decorating difficulties, Davis explains, "We will embroider the pocket, then put the garment together." Screenprinting a "white puff" is often a less-expensive option, she adds. Scorpio Apparel's Lew Klein is less zealous when it comes to screenprinting on Hawaiian shirts. "It turns a Cadillac into a Pinto," he says. He recommends embroidering with "a thread that offsets the pattern's color." Such a decorating strategy, at its best, can result in a more distinctive and memorable logo. You do that on a Hawaiian shirt, and you've got one promotional product that's going to get noticed.
