Aloha,

Twelve Fellow Moai have received the blue fez during a ritual held during the Order's National Convention in Lake George, New York.

Only certain Moai are called upon to wear the blue F.O.M. fez. They are Honui Moai, considered a person worthy of respect and of authority. It is kapu, forbidden, for anyone else to wear the fez.

The ritual is the final step on the path before a Fellow takes their place among the Honui Moai.

The staff at Ipu Ki are pleased to present a laurel and hearty handshake to our newest Honui:

Beachcomber Brian (Kahiki Chapter)
Captain Quad (Queequeg Chapter)
Exotica59 (Red Palms Chapter)
Granite Tiki (Queequeg Chapter)
Hinano Paul (Tungane)
Johnman (Queequeg Chapter)
Manatiki (Kahiki Chapter )
Powerofthetiki (Kokoru Chapter)
Spiked (Kahiki Chapter)
Tag-Along-Steve (Red Palms Chapter)
Trader Vixen (Tungane)
Turbogod (Kokoru Chapter)

Keep the torches burning,

—Tagata Maori Rogorogo
