The club quickly appealed to the public for about $2,500 in restoration funds.<\/p>\n<p>New chapter: Cultural representatives gathered Dec. 6 at the shaded triangle to bless and rededicate the stone ahu, which was rebuilt by Billy Fields, the same master stonemason who erected the original one at the intersection of the two Windward highways.<\/p>\n<p>Primary funders for the work were Harold K.L.
