WE HAVE TON OF IDEAS THAT WILL CHANGE THE WORLD... BUT, WHO CARES... LET'S GO FISHING ~ !

GINOZA INNOVATION --- ZERO ACTION ~ !

Believing strongly in the imagination, talent, and industriousness of the local populace (and wanting to proudly proclaim it to all U.S. Military and other English-speaking foreigners on Okinawa who might drive through their District), the English Class of GINOZA HIGH SCHOOL worked hard to come up with a slogan that would spread the letters of G I N O Z A --- the name of their local Township --- throughout a meaningful statement that could be posted on a Roadside Banner for all to see.

Somewhere along the way, something was lost in translation.

On the other hand, they just might have invented a whole new way to do absolutely nothing ~ !

For those wishing to contact the School to offer your advice for a revised Slogan, the Staff and Students are not available at the moment. They are all over at Mr. Miyagi's T-SHIRT SHOP helping him create some new English designs to be printed on his up-coming line of ladies fashions.

GINOZA TOWNSHIP (incorrectly called a "Village" in this Wiki article) : en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ginoza,_Okinawa

JAPANESE LANGUAGE WEBSITE for GINOZA : www.vill.ginoza.okinawa.jp/

Truth be told, the folks in this mostly agricultural district really are full of ideas that they put into action at every opportunity. However, with 50% of their valuable land --- including all of their beautiful mountains --- being fenced off and used by the U.S. Marines of CAMP HANSEN, they are frustrated from moving ahead on a number of projects.

In my opinion, they have one of the finest local history museums, the most architecturally beautiful dam (Kanna Dam) in Okinawa, and some of the best views of the Mountains and Sea Coasts of the entire Prefecture. It's always a pleasure to drive through the back roads of the area, and everyone there is as nice and helpful as you will ever find.
