Put the Spotlight on Places that Matter

If you’re reading this post we know you care about historic places. Do you have favorites that whisper their stories into the wind and represent important moments in our nation’s past or your own?  What if you could share these places with the world and encourage others to recognize them and care too?  Now you can.  Thanks to the National Trust for Historic Preservation’s online campaign to connect people with places that matter across the country (and globe!).

Let’s put Hawaii on the map!  Our history is like no other and needs to be shared.  Join with Historic Hawaii Foundation and encourage your colleagues, friends and family to help us post photos of Hawai‘i’s many historic sites & buildings to share why #thisplacematters.   It’s easy and fun!

Instructions are at this link: https://savingplaces.org/this-place-matters#.VilEPNOFOM8

You can download and print your own sign or ask the National Trust to send you a sign or flag.  Then go out and hit the town and countryside taking photos of places that matter most to you.  Share your photos online with the hashtag #ThisPlaceMatters.  Post to our Twitter (@HistoricHawaii) and Facebook page.   Share why this place matters to you.
