Lili's Quick Polynesian Summary
The group of islanders that we will be visiting are collectively known as Polynesians. Many believe that the Polynesians first came to their respective islands from Southeast Asia. Also, many historians believe that there is a distinct possibility that Native Americans and Polynesians are related. One group, Native Americans, traveled by land through the Bering Strait. The Polynesians set course on the high seas. Both groups are thought to have originated from the same place. The Polynesian people comprise six groups: Maori, Samoan, Fijian (some do not consider them an actual member of the group), Tahitians, Tongans, and Hawaiians. Throughout their storied history, Polynesians have kept the traditions of the "old island" with the blend of modern living. Their ability to blend both lifestyles has allowed for more opportunities and holding on to traditions that have been passed down through the generations. Please join us today in learning more about them. Also, come with us to enjoy the many activities and locations that they have shared with the world. Enjoy yourself!

Good Night Blessing for the Troops
Blessings on you this evening
May the stars in heaven
light your way into the
Milky Way of dreams
May your day tomorrow
be filled with love
laughter and joy...
Taking away all heart ache
left stinging...
and unclouding your vision
for clear sailing...

Hi KBay, and welcome to the USO Canteen FReeper Style where we honor our troops, our veterans, their families, and our allies every day. Just like the real USO, the USO Canteen Freeper Style "provides morale, welfare and recreation-type services to uniformed military". We laugh, we cry, we pray, we find stories, we post pictures, all for our troops to have a little piece of home-away-from-home when they are afforded the opportunity to drop in and relax a bit. Please join us each day in honoring our troops.
