What: The Harvard Hawaii Club welcomes you to share the Aloha Spirit with them, along with homemade Hawaiian treats and hula dance performances. Have your doubts about coming? After this shindig, you'll be able to understand all the inside jokes from "Forgetting Sarah Marshall." A-ha! The event is free, but a small donation is suggested...

Marques, 34, is the president of the Scottsdale group and has been a devout conservative since discovering Rush Limbaugh while growing up on the Hawaiian island of Maui. She says, "We want limited government, fiscal responsibility, free-market principles and transparency. We are tired of government taking over our freedom."
