Let's take a look back and see what has happened so far. This timeline mainly contains milestones from Okakarara - events that we still consider to be formative today. At the end of the timeline is the year 2024 - the year in which we celebrate our 18th birthday in Okakarara and hope that you will celebrate with us. To view the milestones, move your mouse carefully over the text - perhaps you will discover something.
