Hawaii for Kids with the CSO. 
Summer camp of Project Hawaii program is
offered free of charge to homeless and poverty stricken children
between the ages of 3-7 on the Big Island of Hawaii. This summer, a few
activities of the summer camp was held on the grass of a garden of
'Imiloa Astronomy Center of Hawaii on the 12th of July 2011.
Diana Bisel at the CSO led her art project to create CSO rockets at the
camp.
About thirty kids participated the program of the day. With help
from
seven volunteers that include Ryan Bisel and Jordan Kamimura at Hilo
High School, children made their own CSO rockets with their
creative designs. Following pictures show how much fun kids had
with their rockets. At the end of the project, kids
received the coins from the

day.
