Our Mission
"To provide users with the most accurate, detailed, and up to date travel information available on each and every major spot in the Hawaiian Islands, while continuing to give back to the community, ‘aina (land), and people of Hawai‘i."
Hawaiian Style Organization, L.L.C. (a subsidiary-company of Tradewind Creations, L.L.C) was founded by John Derrick in May 2002. From origins as a small Maui photography website, the company has developed into a multi-media rich organization. Presently, Hawaiian Style Organization, L.L.C. produces photography prints and artwork, travel planning media, maps, assorted merchandise, and a series of guidebooks (the Mile by Mile series). The company is run by John Derrick and Victoria Sharkey.
Meet the Owners
An avid environmentalist and researcher on eco-tourism, John Derrick enjoys study on many aspects of Hawai'i, ranging from the cultural and historical to the flora and fauna of the islands. John has particular interest in landscape photography and tropical flora (which you'll see a lot of around the site).
John services as the President of the Organization and oversees the company's web-related material, photography, advertising, marketing, sales, web store, and performs map layout and GIS analysis on the companies books and digital media. John holds a Bachelors of Science in Environmental/Physical Geography.
Victoria serves as the Manager of the Organization and oversees all finances, public outreach, advertising, printed media coordination, shipping, and distribution.
Other Organizations
The 'One Hawaii Charity & Education Organization,' founded in 2003, is managed by HSO. A portion of all earnings from our products are donated quarterly to charities aiding in cultural and environmental issues in the islands of Hawai'i.
The parent company of Hawaiian Style Organization, L.L.C., Tradewind Creations, L.L.C., also owns PROnetworks Technology, a technology oriented (enthusiast) website, founded by John Derrick in 2001. You can read more about all of the sites operated by Tradewind Creations on this page.

Mahalo nui loa for visiting,
John C. Derrick

You cannot superficially modify the Content, print it on a t-shirt, mug, poster, template or other item, and sell it to others for consumption, reproduction or re-sale. Any use of the Content that is not a Permitted Use shall constitute infringement of copyright.

You may install and use the Content in only one location at a time, although subject to the Prohibited Uses and the other terms of this Agreement, you are entitled to utilize the Permitted Uses an unlimited number of times. You may physically transfer the Content and its archives from one location to another, in which case you may use the Content at the new location instead. If you require the Content to be in more than one location or accessible by more than one person, you must receive approval from HSO LLC for a multi-user license for the Content. You may make one (1) copy of the Content solely for back-up purposes, and you must reproduce all proprietary notices on this single back-up copy.
