This musical organization has a special event every other year, they go on tour. This year they were given the chance to travel to Hawaii. Here they were judged and critiqued on their spectacular performances. While in Hawaii they performed in schools and The Polynesian Culture Center of Ha- waii. Each individual of Shadows had to pay a certain amount of money to go, but not all the money came from their own pockets. Fund-raisers for the group included selling magazine subscriptions, and Santa-grams during December. Santa-grams are an annu- al event with Shadows. During December students had the chance to buy a Santa-gram for 53.00. Shadows would then perform a song for the person of the students choice.
