The new
“OFFICIAL MISS HONOLULU” website!
Check out her
story, platform, and some incredible pics! She really epitomizes everything
good in
(Yeah, I guess you
probably figured out I think pretty highly of her and what’s really
amazing is that it continues to grow with every email, contact, or conversation
J)!
3/5/08--- New site
ALMOST ready! Just putting the finishing touches on it! Raeceen shares a lot of
pictures and an in-depth look into her passion for her platform issue and who
she is. It is most definitely a highly insightful read (Pics are pretty dang
good too J!)
2/15/08---Welcome
to the new home of the heartfelt tribute to an amazing athlete and person,
Remember!

amazing person (now
online)

page (now
online)
2/15/08-- Just registered the raeceen.net domain
for my original tribute (this site). So, once the “Official” site
comes up on raeceen.com, this site will be at www.raeceen.net.
For you geek types...give it 48 hours to register with the top level DNS
servers. Stay tuned! The new site is pretty impressive (ouch! Just threw out my
shoulder from patting myself on the back <J>)
2/12/08-- The new site is almost ready for
release! It’s got a great design and some absolutely amazing pics that
Raeceen shares of her life and pics from before, during, and after the Miss
Honolulu pageant! Just a really genuine person and great family.
1/30/08-- Changes to the site coming! I have
been honored by Rae and asked to design her “Official Miss
Honolulu” webpage for her “Run for the Crown”! The tribute
will be moving but will continue to be updated. I will post the new link for
the tribute site move. The design for the new site is complete and pretty
sharp! There are places to read more about her, donate to her campaign (I was
really surprised to learn how much doing this actually costs her personally. If
you’re interested, on the new site I’ve designed in functionality
for secure credit card donations (paypal) and a link to contact info for her to
mail donations. If you’re a corporation, I’ve designed “real
estate” areas on the page for advertising and linkbacks to your sites).
There are places on the site to leave comments and good wishes, places to
create posts, and much much more! I wasn’t allowed to take a photographer
to the pageant 1/26 (pageant rules), so I’m waiting on the official
pageant pictures from the director. Will post in both places when I get
them….yeah, ok…I did sneak my own camera in to grab a couple of
pics illegally J but I just don’t have the same eye as my friend Ferd!
So stay tuned! It’s
funny, in dealing with Rae on this, I just become more and more impressed by
her beliefs, inner spirit (absolutely blinding!), and [mostly] her stamina!!!
She is an amazing human being!
So…stay tuned and
check back often. The tribute will return to this address hopefully after her
term as Miss
1/26/08-- Ladies and gentlemen, Miss Honolulu,
2008…..Raeceen Woolford! Congratulations Raeceen.
All I can say is that her entire presentation was flawless,
absolutely flawless! The performance of her Hula was… well…”Merry Monarch quality”* perfect and her poise and comfort level during the
“random question” about her platform issue, “Giving Every
Child and Family a Chance” was exemplary, passionate [intellectually and
engagingly passionate], and onipa’a! An absolutely amazing young woman
who carries herself with extreme dignity and whose mere presence commands
respect! I’m seldom at a loss for words, but “Amazing”, is
the only word I have to describe what I saw last night! This is a side of her
that I had not really considered until now. I was always focused on her
athleticism, incredible inner spirit, and her actions during her UH career.
I’m not surprised though…akamai, my friends…and her spirit is
onipa’a in every facet!
You go girl!!!
