In tote remain Tonga Hut's phenomenal staff, as well as dedicated friends and family whom without any of this revival would be possible. This Thread will take you through a Pictorial journey in time dating back to 1958 and will lead you on our journey to the present. We are reviving and face lifting the exterior and interior of the Tonga Hut and we will show you each step of the way the upgrades, additions, improvements and just good plain old fun we are having. Please be assured that the integrity of the Tonga Hut’s architecture will be in no way destroyed only enhanced. It is of great importance to us that you are included in this build as you have all been so patient and supportive of us for many years, it is for you, and because of you that we still open our doors each and every day for 53 years. Our gracious and immediate thanks to, Kirby Fleming, Ernie Keen, Chase, John Corbid, Jim Bacchi, Tom & Sherri, Christine Reifer, Jake Geiger, Victor and Kelly from Mojave Oasis, Buzzy, Scott Mabbutt, Marty Lush, Sven, Murph, Eric October, Suzy Mosher, Kelly Reilly with MANY more thanks to come.
